Investments that can change the world

Do you want to know how?

Increasingly people are realising that there is more to good financial planning than the accumulation of wealth. As a socially minded person, you are looking for investments that offer a ‘double bottom line’ – providing a good potential return for you whilst making a positive impact on the environment and other people’s lives.

A new market has emerged that offers opportunities for, what are termed, socially responsible investors. Whether your interest is in saving the planet, making poverty history or staying true to your moral or ethical code there will be a choice of funds, ventures or businesses that you can put your money into. At Truestone we help you to understand exactly what these options are and the associated risks and returns.    

Truestone has been involved for many years in philanthropic activities and ventures, helping to found and fund a number of local and international charities. Our work and our interest in areas such as this have allowed us to build up a deep understanding of the market for socially motivated and socially responsible investing.

Specifically, Truestone has developed a range of socially motivated investment opportunities; investments that primarily help disadvantaged people but still offer you a potentially good return on capital.

Truestone also offers advice on charitable giving. Many people are wary of getting involved in philanthropy because they are uncertain of how well their money will be used and who will benefit. We approach charitable giving in the same way as we would an investment decision; researching the market and analysing the results to ensure that charities are screened for good governance, administrative capability and the impact of each pound given.
