Founder of Conscious Investment Firm Shares "Global Values" with Clients

    LOS ANGELES, CA, December 16, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Financial advisor and founder of Centerpoint Investment Strategies, Stuart Valentine has played an active role in the Green Private Placement sector of the Socially Responsible Investing (SRI) industry since 2000. He met Karin Miller, author of "Global Values: A New Paradigm for a New World" at a recent conference and found that her book resonated deeply with the investment strategy he supports his clients in undertaking.

"When I read Karin's book 'Global Values," said Stuart, "it so resonated with the investment model I use, which is to help people make more explicit the subterranean or unexamined belief systems, value systems that we just sort of unconsciously adopt from our family, our church, our schools. I thought Karin did an excellent job of inviting people into that conversation. She was not dogmatic in any way, and she was very universal in her appeal. Anybody could get on board, in my opinion, with what she put down on paper."

"In the investment practice I'm in, I'm investing in companies that really understand what we would call the triple-bottom-line model. In the socially responsible investment universe, you're looking to invest for profit--return on investment, return on human capital and return on natural capital. I really look for companies that understand the return by investing in their people and building a culture of collaboration."

"I give a gift on behalf of our family of clients every year ... and this year I'm sending a personal gift to each of our clients of Karin's book. It's a quick read, and it's a meaningful read and it reminds clients why they're choosing to invest like this."
