Mounting Acclaim for the SerenityShares ETF Solution the UN SDGs

CHEVY CHASE, Md., Sept. 21, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SerenityShares continues to receive praise from individuals and investment professionals for its approach that makes the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) practical for investment through publicly traded stocks. The 20 underlying societal and environmental challenges used by SerenityShares taps into sectors that are seeing growing demand?such as elder care and renewable energy--allowing investors to "seek a return AND make a difference." The strategy has gained the firm a nomination at the 2018 Finance Awards and recent invitations to speak at impact investing events in San Francisco, New York City, Washington DC, and Colorado Springs.

According to Scott Sacknoff, CEO of SerenityShares, "The Sustainable Development Goals developed by the UN are a powerful way to raise awareness of global issues. Unfortunately, broad goals such as "eliminating poverty" cannot be easily translated to public equity investments. Our strategy takes these laudable goals and translates them into specific themes that can be targeted through investment in public equities."

Kathy Neumann, SerenityShares' President, said that "by choosing to focus on solutions to problems, one can more easily understand which companies have products or services that address the root issues."
