Happy Ethical Investment Week!

It's Ethical Investment Week 2026!

Artificial intelligence is changing how we live and work — and the way it is developed and used can have real consequences for human rights, privacy, fairness and democracy.

To launch EIW, the Ethical Advisers’ Co-op and Responsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA) have released the 'Ethical Investment Guide to Artificial Intelligence and Human Rights'.

You can download this Free Guide here: https://www.ethicaladviserscoop.org/ethical-investment-week

The guide explores why AI matters to investors, from reputational, legal and financial risks through to broader systemic risks that diversification alone may not solve. It also offers practical questions to ask about how fund managers and Advisers are addressing these emerging issues.

Your investments can help shape the kind of AI future we create.

What questions do you think investors should be asking companies and fund managers about their use of AI?

Greater transparency around where superannuation is actually invested is long overdue.

Thank you for the review James!

"Kevin was very professional and client focused with all of his advice. It was clear he had worked on a plan specific to my needs and not gone with a copy and paste solution.

He is thorough and clear in his explanations and is very considerate in his delivery to ensure you understand what he is saying. Would happily and have recommend Kevin to other people.

Also all of the staff who worked with Kevin were fantastic and accommodating during the consultations."

The communities in advice we are a part of are what allow us to best support our clients.

Being part of the Ethical Advisers' Co-op this past year has been an important part of this, and we're thrilled to see how much this group has been able to achieve in 2025!

Key outcomes include:

• Growing to $3.25 billion in ethically managed funds under advice for our clients

Thank you for the review Darren! 😊

"I have been working with Jarryd for nearly 3 years. The first time was with my partner but that came to an end, since then Jarryd has helped put all my finances, super and budgeted my retirement to give me a really good idea of where I'm going and what can be achieved. I would not hesitate in recommending Jarryd to anyone."
