What is SRI? An investment approach where investors drive social and environmental impact while generating a financial return. It is an umbrella term for different strategies:
Green finance, Socially Conscious investing, Environment Social & Governance (ESG), and
Impact Investing. SRI strategies have $12 trillion assets under management in the U.S. and $31 trillion globally. $1 in every $4 in the U.S. is invested under ESG investment strategies.

research-backed obligations that help fund new medicines, and student loans that are based on social factors like what the startup Sixup is doing. SRI is going to continue to grow! Blackrock predicts sustainable ETF assets will top $400 billion in 2019!
