What is screening?
Screening is a process for vetting companies which excludes from investment those whose activities conflict with your ethical views; and approves for investment companies whose activities either don't raise concerns, or have positive social or environmental benefits.
In addition to identifying core activities that conflict with specific ethical concerns, such as the sale of weapons or tobacco, the research and analysis underpinning the screening process takes into account the positive measures, such as policies, management systems and initiatives, which companies use to mitigate their environmental and human rights impacts.
