Investment Driven by Guilt, and That's Good

The author postulates that people are investing in socially responsible funds and impact investments out of guilt. And that's not a bad thing.

From original article:

"More money is flowing into 'good' investments than ever. Take the low-hanging fruit - mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. There are about 500 socially conscious funds, according to the SIF. There are hedge funds, debt instruments and now even private equity vehicles that are aimed at investing in companies with a social conscience."
