National Ethical Investment Week (NEIW) is a campaign launched in 2008, to raise awareness, and promote among the public, the fact that they have green and ethical options when it comes to their finance and investment decisions.
NEIW brings together financial advisers, financial organisations, NGOs, charities and faith groups, all working in partnership to encourage the transition towards a more environmentally sustainable, and socially responsible society.
Henderson was one of the lead sponsors of NEIW at its inception in 2008, and we are proud to be a sponsor again for 2009.

The past few years have shown that ethical and green investors can combine competitive financial returns with their desire for environmental and social progress. This is our second year as sponsors of National Ethical Investment Week and following last year’s success we are looking forward to continuing to stimulate debate and broaden awareness of ethical and green investments. The current market environment serves only to highlight the importance of many of the issues that such investments aim to tackle.
