The fund avoids investing in companies based on a wide range of negative ethical criteria, and also seeks investment in a number of positive areas. Fund literature states that ideally companies invested in would meet every positive criteria, but accepts that few companies may meet this standard - there are therefore thresholds on particular criteria for passing and failing companies.
