[174] Discover Ethical Superannuation with Verve Super Co-founder Christina Hobbs

Superannuation is incredibly important to ensure you’re comfortable financially in retirement. But what if superannuation had another purpose?

What if superannuation was an avenue for you to create a better future for humanity?

What if superannuation was an avenue for you to create a better global environment in the future?

What if could easily divest your superannuation investments away from fossil fuels, guns or gambling and instead invest in renewables, micro-finance for women-run businesses and social housing?

Well you can!

In this Eco Chat episode I’m joined by co-founder and CEO of Verve Super, Christina Hobbs.

Christina is an experienced Board Director in the superannuation industry and a former Deloitte Management Consultant. Prior to founding Verve, Christina worked for over a decade as a humanitarian and financial inclusion expert for the United Nations. She is a former Board Director of the Global Women's Project and a published author on gender equality.

Christina will explain what ESG superannuation funds are, how you can make the switch to an ethical fund and why she co-founded Verve Super, Australia's first ethical superannuation fund tailored for women.
