Aussie FIRE | Financial Independence Retire Early

66. Q&A: Ethical ETFs


Listen Later

In this episode, we answer two listener questions. One on ethical investing and ESG funds, and another on managing tech concentration in a portfolio. We'll unpack:


👉 Whether aligning with ESG principles means reducing exposure to Australian equities

👉 Why assuming the US market will always outperform Australia might be

👉 What the ethical ETF DZZF is

👉 Why defining “ethical” companies is harder than it seems

👉 The trade-offs of ESG investing

👉 An alternative approach: investing broadly and donating the fee savings?

👉 Why adding more ETFs might not protect a portfolio from a major market crash

👉 How to think about tech concentration in your portfolio
