Released: 21 May 2008
Rathbone Investment Management (Rathbones) is to formally extend its specialist ethical investment service by launching Rathbone Greenbank Investments in Liverpool.
Based in Bristol but operating nationally, the team behind Rathbone Greenbank Investments has been offering specialist ethical investment services for private clients since 1992. The new Liverpool presence is being launched by investment director Lorraine Dodd who has worked at Rathbones since 1993.
“As ethical investment issues become more mainstream, we are seeing increasing demand from clients and their advisers for a dedicated ethical service that takes their concerns into account and is backed up by detailed research and understanding of the issues. Extending Rathbone Greenbank Investments to Liverpool will help us capitalise on Rathbones’ longstanding and recognised credentials in this market and make the service more widely available to investors across the UK,” commented Elizabeth Haigh, head of Rathbone Greenbank Investments.
“Ethical and sustainable business practices lend themselves to long-term investment decision making and our team has many years’ experience in building portfolios that reflect an individual’s specific ethical criteria as well as meeting their financial objectives.”
