Description

Clean Yield Asset Management is an SEC-registered investment advisory firm working exclusively with social investors. Since our founding in 1984, our goal has been to invest to promote a sustainable society while achieving competitive financial returns. Our hallmark is working closely with our clients to ensure that we are responsive to their unique financial requirements and personal values.

Social investors recognize that every financial transaction has social implications as well as monetary ones. While traditional investing is aimed exclusively at maximizing financial value, social investing takes account of both financial and social bottom lines. Socially responsible investing can be a catalyst for positive social change or merely a way to help the investor sleep better at night.

In its ideal, SRI is investing that does not exploit human, environmental, or capital resources, but rather directs financial resources for positive social benefit.

In recent years, the SRI field has been grouped into 4 broad activities:

  1. Screening: avoidance and positive
  2. Community and social-venture investing
  3. Shareowner proxy activism / corporate engagement
  4. Public-policy advocacy

At Clean Yield, we are committed both to maximizing financial return and promoting a better society, and, at minimum, avoiding social and environmental harm. We are engaged in all 4 activities.
