Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan Are Joining a Sustainable Investment Company
It looks like the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are doing their part in helping the planet.
The couple are joining “sustainable investment” company Ethic as global “impact partners” according to the New York Times.
The newspaper has reported that Harry and Meghan are joining the five-year-old sustainable investment firm, as “impact partners” and investors.
Ethic helps clients put their money toward companies that behave in socially responsible ways and the Royal couple aim to “shine a light on how we can all impact the causes that affect our communities, bring transparency into how the corporate world sets the tone and shapes outcomes for everyday families,” an official press release from the company read.
“With their partnership, our shared vision for a world in which all investing is sustainable investing can reach many millions around the globe.”
The couple also revealed in an interview with the NY Times that they had been introduced to the company through friends.
In the interview, the two also detailed their decision to join Ethic, explaining how they want to demystify the process behind sustainable investing.
“My husband has been saying for years, ‘Gosh, don’t you wish there was a place where if your values were aligned like this, you could put your money to that same sort of thing?'” Meghan told the New York Times. “From the world I come from, you don’t talk about investing, right? You don’t have the luxury to invest. That sounds so fancy.”
“You already have the younger generation voting with their dollars and their pounds, you know, all over the world when it comes to brands they select and choose from,” Harry said during the conversation.
The couple have announced several other business ventures since stepping away from their senior working royal duties last year. This includes production deals with Netflix and Spotify, and
Harry has a personal memoir slated to release next fall.
