Don't know what you can do to save this planet? Think your - only a person's ability is too weak to shift the businesses' future sustainability plans? It's time for me to tell you that all these thoughts are completely wrong! Investing a green mutual fund could be your prefect choice to contribute to saving the planet and earning more money at the same time! In this post, I'm going to recommend a green mutual fund called The Brown Advisory Sustainable Growth Fund to you.   

The fund is owned by Brown Advisory, an  independently-owned investment firm. Their goal is to provide clients the highest level of investment and strategic advice, service and individualized attention. Brown Advisory is not a lending institution or an investment bank. They do not trade for their own account, underwrite securities or carry credit exposure of any kind on their balance sheet. Their firm capital consists almost entirely of shareholders equity.

The Brown Advisory Sustainable Growth Fund (BIAWX) seeks for long-term capital appreciation by investing in a concentrated portfolio of companies that effciently inplement environmantally sustainable business strategies to drive their prospects for future earnings growth.The Fund's investing approach are generating tangible business results, in the forms of revenue growth, cost improvement, or enhanced franchise value.

The particular sector that they are paying the most attention to is industrials, which accounts for 34% of their total sector exposure. Also, information technology occupies 30% and consumer discretionary occupies 18%. The rest of the sectors they expose are materials, healthcare and consumer staples.

The fund has returned 22.51 percent over the past year. In the past 5 years,  the performance of this fund was rather positive. Its stock price kept increasing from below $10 to above $14. Although it's not a large scale of increase, as I mentioned before, it's a long-term investment. Besides, it has very little risk. So, in summery, it's still a mutual fund that is worth investing in.
