Ethical Bond is a great idea - if you want to keep your money safe and ethical and earn interest on top

I have locked my money for one year with Triodos and will accumulate some good interest on the capital. Since I had the amount to spare, I thought it's good to keep it with the people who aren't going to invest it in alcohol, tobacco, fossil fuels, or the arms trade. The interest rate is quite decent though you can probably get a better one so it comes down to ethics. For me it was a no-brainer. Reviewed on: 13th April 2021

Triodos Bank is wonderful, I like the fact that they care about the future of our planet and support smaller businesses. It's not just saying that it commits to good acts but actually acts which is not so common these days. Initially, I set up an account with them at the start of the year but had to cancel as I was meant to be moving abroad for a new job.
