Abstract

People who invest with an eye toward social responsibility can make just as much money as those who don't restrict their investments, according to a study published this month. "The general consensus has been that when you restrict your investment universe, you run the risk of affecting the level and predictability of your returns," said David Sauer, associate professor of economics and finance at the University of Dayton. "But the bottom line is that applying social responsibility screens does not necessarily result in inferior performance. You can do as well as those who invest in an unrestricted portfolio."
