Socially responsible investing

Investing according to values—avoiding harm, supporting good—appeals to conscience but carries a hidden cost: you may sacrifice returns while other investors profit from the harms you've excluded, raising the question of whether individual moral purity matters when systems persist regardless. The harder question is whether selective investment changes anything or mainly serves as permission to participate in harmful systems.
