Mindful Money CEO Barry Coates said the awards, established last year, were setting a new benchmark for ethical investment. 

“These awards show innovation and leadership on ethical and impact investing. Amidst public concern over misleading claims and greenwashing, these funds are walking the talk. Standards have risen over the past year and there are now more choices for investors, and real benefits for the climate, environment and society.”

“The awards extend Mindful Money’s focus on transparency and objective information. The judging process has relied on independent and experienced judges to assess the best performance in each category.”
