  • Mindful Investing: Integrating Values and Impact in Investment Decisions

    Mindful Investing: Integrating Values and Impact in Investment Decisions
    Jul 11 2025
    Why This Episode Is a Must-Watch Are your investments truly aligned with your values? In this episode of Inspired Money, host Andy Wang sits down with leading thinkers and practitioners in sustainable and ethical investing to challenge the traditional focus on returns alone. If you’ve ever wondered whether your money can “do well and do good,” this conversation is packed with fresh perspectives, actionable strategies, and a transparent look at mindful investing, including how to spot (and avoid) greenwashing. Whether you’re a finance professional, a seasoned investor, or just getting started, this episode will change how you think about where your money goes—and the impact it creates. Meet the Expert Panelists John Streur is Chief Investment Officer of All Material Risk Investment Strategies (AMRIS) at Boston Common Asset Management and a recognized leader in sustainable investing. As former President and CEO of Calvert Research and Management, he advanced ESG integration through innovations like the Calvert Principles, Calvert Research System, and Calvert Indices, while guiding the firm’s AUM growth from $11 billion to over $40 billion. https://bostoncommonasset.com Kristin Hull, Ph.D., is the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Nia Impact Capital, where she pioneers values-aligned investing with a focus on social justice, environmental sustainability, and gender equity. A former educator turned impact investing leader, she is devoted to transforming finance to better serve people and the planet. https://www.niaimpactcapital.com Manel Pretel-Wilson, Ph.D., is a social entrepreneur and systems thinker with senior leadership experience in innovation and sustainability. He holds degrees in Business Studies and Philosophy, master’s degrees in International Relations and Sustainability, a PhD in Systems Science, and is the author of the forthcoming book The Ethics of Human Systems: Creating Economic Value with Impact for Good (August 2025), which explores integrating ethics deeply into economics and impact investing. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Manel-Pretel-Wilson Key Highlights Rethinking Risk and Opportunity with ESG John Streur discussed how integrating ESG data uncovers risks and opportunities often missed by traditional analysis. He explained, “Including this information broadly should result in a much better understanding of the company…what is their ability to manage their impact on the environment? What is their ability to create a great workplace for men and women and people of all backgrounds?” Purpose-Driven Portfolios Start with Value Alignment Kristin Hull shared her journey from high-frequency trading to purpose-aligned investing—emphasizing that investors, big and small, shape the economy by where they put their capital. By focusing on solution-driven companies and evaluating both risks and opportunities, Kristin’s approach helps investors build portfolios that reflect their ethics and financial goals. Ethics as the Foundation of Impact Dr. Manel Pretel-Wilson made a compelling case for putting ethics at the core of investment strategies, not just screening out negatives. “By pursuing a good purpose that realizes value, you’re already leaving behind all the other [counter values].” He advocates for frameworks that measure both realized values and counter values, urging investors to see ethical impact as central to value creation. Greenwashing: How to Spot It and What to Do The panel addressed the rise in shallow ESG claims and shared concrete tips for investors to move beyond the marketing to find authentic impact. Kristin noted the importance of examining sources of revenue and measurable commitments, while John highlighted the value of analyzing regulatory filings and third-party verification. Call-to-Action Here’s one thing you can do this week, because positive change requires action. Take a look at one investment you hold and ask yourself, “Does this align with my values?” Dig in. Look beyond the ticker. Who’s leading the company? What do they stand for? What’s their environmental and social footprint? That one moment of curiosity might just spark a broader shift in how you view and shape your portfolio.
