Swell Rolls Out iOS App For Socially Responsible Investment

Santa Monica-based Swell Investing, a startup which lets consumers invest in companies which meet socially responsibility, and "impact goals", has rolled out a new iOS app, which lets consumers invest in companies from their smartphone. According to Swell Investing, the new app lets users invest in companies solving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) in seven portfolios, covering green technology, renewable energy, disease eradication, zero waste, healthy living, clean water, and "impact" areas. Swell Investment, led by CEO Dave Fanger, says the app makes it as easy to invest in socially responsible companies as it is to use Instagram or Twitter. The investment app links with a user's existing bank account.
