Financial Education

Financial education has been an integral part of our practice from the start. In 2009, we began speaking at universities to help lay the groundwork for young people as they begin and move through their careers.
 
Over the years we’ve expanded our offerings with the goal of further spreading financial education. This page includes both the slides and videos for some of our more popular presentations over the years. If you would like our team to provide this type of education to your organization, please reach out to us at PYBRteam@lpl.com.

For investors, this rapidly changing landscape creates opportunities to potentially reduce risk and improve returns all while staying consistent with their values.


So what is Responsible Investing? It's an approach to investing that aims to incorporate environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into investment decisions, to better manage risk and generate sustainable, long-term returns.


An Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) fund’s policy could cause it to perform differently compared to funds that do not have such a policy.
