• Diversification aims at minimizing the risk or reducing the

• Hedging is the process of controlling/offsetting the

• “A risk management strategy used in offsetting the
probability of loss from fluctuations in the prices of
commodities, currencies, or securities.”
• The most common way of hedging in the investment
world is through derivatives.
Ethical Investment
• Ethical investing refers to the practice of using one's ethical principles as
the primary filter for the selection of securities investing.
• Depends on an investor's ethical views rather than economic motives.
• Gives the individual the power to allocate their savings towards companies
whose practices and values align with their personal beliefs.
• The earliest recorded instance of ethical investing in America was by the
18th century Quakers, who restricted members from spending their time or
money in the slave trade.
• Example: Islamic banking, which shuns investments in alcohol, gambling,
pork and other forbidden items.
How to Invest Ethically?
