Socially responsible investing (SRI) is investing that is mindful of the impact on society of that investment. It is often described to investors as allowing them 'to do well by doing good'. SRI usually describes investments that screen out companies that violate environmental or other laws, use child labour or sweatshops, discriminate in hiring, or - in general - produce products detrimental to society or engage in practices deemed reprehensible by most people.
