Solutions for Mutual Fund and ETF Providers

Interest in Terror-Free investment products is at record levels. A recent Luntz, Maslansky survey of Americans revealed that 86% of Americans were unwilling to do business with companies that were doing business in and with terror sponsoring states.

Further, 80% of Americans would choose to invest with companies that were not doing business with terror sponsoring states, even if that meant getting a lower return.

There is no evidence, however, that Terror-Free investment products under-perform. To the contrary, the Terror-Free investment products currently in the market have matched or bettered their benchmarks.

An increasing number of managers are offering actively-managed portfolios and developing investment products Screened and Certified Terror-Free by CSAG for the retail market. By early 2008, individual investors seeking Terror-Free tax advantaged portfolios, mutual funds, ETFs, and separately managed accounts will find options in the marketplace, several of which will be offered by some of the largest and most prestigious investment firms in the world. Please contact CSAG to learn more about the ever-growing number of options available to individual investors or see Solutions for Individual Investors for more information.
