'GREEN GAP' IN CONSUMER ATTITUDES

New research has found that more than two thirds (70%) of people in the UK consider their outlook and lifestyle to be either very or fairly green and ethical.  The poll, conducted by YouGov also found that half (49%) of people with savings and investments would like to make money and make a difference. But, despite this positive attitude and a growing array of financial products to choose from, only 8% of investors currently hold a green and ethical investment or savings product, highlighting a  a ‘green gap’ in peoples’ attitudes towards ethical and environmental issues and the actions they currently take, especially when it comes to investing.

To help breach this green gap, NEIW aims to raise awareness of the green and ethical options available to investors, with events and resources to help you learn more about green and ethical investment.
