The modern concept of trade and commerce is highly different to the primitive concepts of barter system. Nowadays, everything has become very fast and to cope up with the pace people are using several methods for carrying their transactions. People in the modern days use several standards for carrying their transactions.
In today’s economic climate, we barely even see our money, even when making physical purchases: instead we use a bit of symbolic plastic, key in four digits and give no thought to whether any actual substance, be it gold standard or otherwise, is actually being exchanged as we make our weekly shop.
Further than that, those four digits we key in link to a bank somewhere on our local high street, which links to a centralised national headquarters which links to a national stock market which links to an international stock exchange where the only literal trade seems to be between imaginary numbers and percentages. And when you trace the big money, the companies that make those totals swing, you travel around the world to billion-dollar arms trades providing semi-automatics, tanks and grenades to civil wars tearing apart tiny countries thousands of miles away from our local ATM.
With such a complex economic system spanning so many continents, we do not take the time or effort to trace all those transactions that feed into providing us with a little boost in interest rates. But perhaps we should. And perhaps we should make the most of the wealth of information now available to us via the internet which clearly tells us how such massive amounts of money are made so immorally.
And so when you come to making an investment, to choosing an ISA (Individual Savings Account), so that perhaps you can have a little non-taxable return on all your hard work, wouldn’t it pay to ensure that your investment doesn’t become someone else’s civil war?
Although most companies providing ISAs would ignore these sorts of imperatives, there are a few ways in which you can try to make money ethically. Legal and General is one a select few providers which offers an Ethical ISA alongside more standard income ISAs, unit trusts and the like. Whilst no one can guarantee that such an investment might save the world, it can make a small but significant difference, and provide the finance industry with an alternative mode of accruing those seemingly meaningless numbers.
