Navigate Financial helps you align your portfolio with your values
Socially responsible investing (SRI) is an approach to investing that enables you to develop an investment portfolio which reflects your personal, moral, social, and environmental values.
By excluding certain types of investments from your portfolio, you can pursue your financial goals while ensuring your personal investment decisions have a positive impact on our community and the world around us.
Navigate Financial makes it possible for you to customize your portfolio to reflect your personal values. We can help you design an investment portfolio that can exclude specific sectors, such as companies that are involved in developing military weapons, have poor environmental records, or are involved in animal testing. In essence, we enable you to put your money where your heart is as you invest intelligently to meet your goals.
We can help you:
- Implement investment strategies to help increase and protect your wealth;
- Screen out companies and industries that you do not want to support;
- Minimize taxes, while maximizing the money you save and invest for your future;
- Make wise decisions about your retirement accounts and plan your distribution strategy as you near retirement (or now that you are retired);
- Help you put effective protection plans in place to secure your financial future against the unexpected; and,
- Preserve, protect and continue to grow your assets after retirement to ensure you’ll live comfortably and leave a lasting legacy of financial security for your loved ones.
Your Socially Responsible Investing Portfolio can employ any of these 16 social screens:
- Adult Entertainment
- Alcohol
- Animal Welfare
- Contraceptives/Abortifacients
- Diversity of Company’s Board of Directors
- Environmental Performance
- Firearms
- Gambling
- Human Rights
- Labor Relations/Workplace Issues
- Nuclear Power
- Pork
- Predatory Lending
- Stem Cell Research
- Tobacco
- Weapons/Military
Objective and independent advice
At Navigate Financial, we are independent and objective. We strongly believe the most effective advisor/client relationship results when there is open communication and disclosure of any conflicts of interest.

Helping you attain long-term financial success
If you are among the growing number of investors who want to integrate your personal values and community concerns with your investment decisions, Navigate Financial can help you customize your portfolio accordingly.
*Socially responsible investing involves the exclusion of certain securities for nonfinancial reasons. This may result in the investor forgoing some market opportunities that may have been available to those not subject to such criteria. There is no guarantee that any investment goal will be met.
