A brief description of the socially responsible investment option for retirement plans:
Luther offers it employees a CREF Social Choice Account, which seeks total return consistent with certain social criteria. The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of equity, debt, and money-market securities. It normally invests 60% of assets in equities and 40% in debt securities. The fund invests in companies included in the KLD Broad Market Social Index, which is a subset of companies in the Russell 3000 index screened to eliminate companies that do not meet certain social criteria. The KLDBMSI screening captures the best environmental, social and governance (ESG) performers in each sector of the 3,000 largest U.S. equities.
