Great to hear Prof Evans warn investors to have "nothing to do" with #nuclearweapons. Good news is, there's no significant financial impact from excluding these high-risk investments! @DontBankonBomb @nuclearban @MAPW_Australia
“Geopolitical events come in many shapes and sizes.” In his keynote, Professor the Hon Gareth Evans AC KC identifies the main geopolitical challenges that pose risks for Australian investors generally, and both risks and opportunities for responsible investors.

1/2: Shout out to @vanguard_au Super for excluding nuclear weapons producers from investment options. We wrote to the company in 2023 with concerns: despite some screens, the fund did have some exposure to companies involved in production of nuclear weapons.

The December PDS makes clear that these companies are screened out 👏👏Time for other super funds to step up and exclude companies involved in the production of nuclear weapons. And congrats to Vanguard Super for great returns in calendar year 2023.

There is nothing great or strategic about threatening to use nuclear weapons. As Setsuko Thurlow said, “The development of nuclear weapons signifies not a country’s elevation to greatness, but its descent to the darkest depths of depravity.” #nuclearban mg.co.za/opinion/2023-02-10-…
