Profits or Ethics | John Howchin

from The Natural Resources Podcast · host Highgrade Media

Are there unethical companies, or economic sectors altogether?  Is the ethical choice down to the producer or the consumer?  In this episode, we tackle the thorny issue of morality in investment decisions.We discuss with John Howchin, Secretary General of the Council on Ethics for the Swedish National Pension Funds.  His job is to discern good from bad - and there are billions of dollars at stake. ***Highgrade is a not-for-profit organisation that produces interviews and documentaries that identify, capture and disseminate analysis and insights in the field of natural resources and social progress.Our mission is to provide open and free access to specialist knowledge and to disseminate good practice and innovation in this field.
