What can CAER offer potential clients?

What's in a name?
Long-time CAER stakeholders will have noticed that CAER now stands for 'Corporate Analysis. Enhanced Responsibility', rather than our original tagline 'Centre for Australian Ethical Research'. This change in our public image reflects developments in the responsible investment sector rather than any change in the way we work, so existing clients can rest assured that there will be no alteration in the level of service they receive and in the types of criteria we cover. We are encouraged to see new players in this marketplace, and look forward to a long future providing excellent research on environment, social, governance and ethical issues to investors of all motivations, whether they be ethical investors, socially responsible investors, sustainability investors, responsible investors or indeed new names that no-one has dreamed up yet. For convenience, CAER remains incorporated under our original name, the Centre for Australian Ethical Research.
