Australian Ethical emerging companies added to HUB24
Australian Ethical's emerging companies fund has been added to the HUB24 platform, due to strong adviser and investor demand, according to the fund manager.
The emerging companies fund was added to HUB24 Super and HUB24 Invest.
It provided exposure to diversified Australian shares in small cap companies which had social, environmental and financial credentials, the firm said.
The fund used an active stock-picking management style, and stocks were picked for growth rather than income.
Stocks they selected also had an investment grade rating from Lonsec.
Australian Ethical head of business development and client relations, Adam Kirk, said: "Demand for ethical investment options is reaching unprecedented levels".
"By having all our funds available on the HUB24 platform, more advisers will be able to tap into the ethical investing boom, and present their customers [clients] with socially responsible, sustainable but also profitable investment options," he said.
