About Australian Ethical Investment Ltd

Australian Ethical Investments Ltd (ASX: AEF) is a funds management company that specialises in environmentally and socially responsible investments. 

The company touts itself as going beyond standard environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria to actively seek to invest in companies that "do good".

Founded in 1986, Australian Ethical Investments offers a range of managed funds, an exchange-traded fund, as well as superannuation and pension products.

The company's funds have nil investment in fossil fuel, nuclear, or tobacco companies. They also have a substantially heavier weighting in low carbon-producing companies and renewable energy investments than benchmark Australian and global index funds.
