Socially responsible investors are therefore selective investors. They avoid investments in companies that pollute, discriminate, impose unsafe working conditions, among other criteria.
Social investments makes good financial sense.
Companies not following socially and environmentally responsible practice stand to lose a portion of their earnings to regulatory pressures, fines, strikes, lawsuits and boycotts. Those committed to social investment believe, that the best long-term investments combine positive social and financial performance. The socially responsible approach allows investors to pursue a good financial return and progressive social goals at once. Since 1987, PAM has provided investors the opportunity to invest for financial return and social progress. Currently they have offices located in Oakland, Portland, New York, Boston, Baltimore, Northern Michigan and New Hampshire.
