I was delighted to have the opportunity to invest responsibly through Jonathan's interest in this area.
I have been a client of Rise Financial since its inception, and was associated with Jonathan and his team for a number of years before that. I have always found them to be professional, friendly and helpful. Jonathan is very thorough and has extensive knowledge of the field of finance and investment. I was delighted to have the opportunity also to invest responsibly through Jonathan's interest in this area.
Anne Kroening
Jonathan keeps up to date with this growing market and therefore is able to keep us informed of the increasing opportunities to participate in responsible investments.
We chose to invest for our retirement with Rise Financial Ltd for many reasons and two in particular. Firstly, we have been salaried employees all our working lives so have not developed any useful knowledge about investments. Jonathan really understands needs for investment and therefore is very good at offering information and options, listening to our retirement plans and assisting us in making appropriate decisions. Secondly, we are particularly interested in ensuring our investments are used to assist the healthy, ethical developments within New Zealand and beyond. Jonathan keeps up to date with this growing market and therefore is able to keep us informed of the increasing opportunities to participate in responsible investments.

Oil and gas giants shed billions after Norwegian fund's divestment

The Sydney Morning Herald March 11, 2019
Australian energy companies shed more than $2.5 billion on Monday after Norway's sovereign wealth fund’s decision to cut its global oil holdings, the rout even hitting companies the fund didn’t own.

The group is the world’s largest sovereign wealth fund, with more than $1 trillion in investments. On Friday, the fund's deputy governor, Egil Matsen, said it would divest its stakes in energy exploration and production companies "to make the government's wealth less vulnerable to a permanent drop in oil prices".

The simple finance decisions that can make a huge impact

Millennials are proving that when it comes to making an impact, they’re not happy with a participation trophy. They want to be the most valued players.

Most of us make choices to live life responsibly and ethically, and when we entrust someone with our earnings, we expect they will invest it according to our values. But do we really monitor what our bank or super fund is doing with our money?

To divest or not to divest? That is the question

... should (investors) simply divest from “bad” companies, or should they be using their stake to change the inner workings of companies?
