Norwich Union is extending its range of investment funds to include six socially responsible investment (SRI) funds available on its Portfolio Bond, Bond 2000 and FlexiBond products.

The new SRI funds only invest in companies that actively address global concerns and, through sustainable development, aim to provide good investment performance. The funds will focus on companies which provide solutions for both current and future social and environmental issues. It is increasingly being recognised that forward looking responsible companies are most likely to produce attractive returns.
