Growing numbers of Australians are looking to reap the benefits of the strong performances delivered through responsible investment, by switching their superannuation to ethically driven funds, Australian Ethical reveals.
Australian Ethical managing director, Phil Vernon, reported that at the end of Q3, the super fund had $1.235 billion in funds under management, up 5.9 per cent on the previous quarter.
"Net inflows for the last quarter have set yet another record, at 20 per cent about the previous quarter and 97 per cent higher than the same quarter of the previous year," he said.
"There are now over 25,000 members in our super fund and almost 40 new members joining every month, as Australians realise they can invest ethically while enjoying strong investment performance."
