The Family Investments Ethical Child Trust Fund
You can choose a Family Investments Stakeholder Child Trust Fund which invests into an ethical fund.
Our ethical Child Trust Fund aims to achieve long term capital growth by closely following the performance of companies included in the FTSE4Good UK 50 Total Return Index*.
To be included in this index, companies must meet globally recognised corporate responsibility standards. These include:
- Making a positive contribution towards environmental sustainability
- Upholding and supporting human rights
- Ensuring good supply chain labour standards
The FTSE4Good UK 50 Total Return Index also avoids any investment in companies involved in tobacco production, nuclear weapons and whole weapon systems.

By taking out an ethical Child Trust Fund you'll not only be investing for your child's future, you'll be helping to secure a stable, safe environment for yourselves, your family and everyone around you.

For more detailed information about our Ethical Child Trust Fund account including its aims and risks please ensure you read our
key features**. A stakeholder account isn't necessarily suitable for everyone, so you should ensure that this type of account suits you and your child's needs before investing your voucher.
If you're interested in our ethical investment fund you can request further information or apply online today. Please remember that because the account invests in shares the value of the account could fall as well as rise, and your child may get back less than has been invested.
