This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. But it is subject to change as our understanding of the facts evolves.

Environmental Damage
Since Oct 14, 2021

Anglogold Ashanti Ltd is a major gold mining company, an industrial activity with a documented history of causing severe environmental damage, including toxic contamination of soil and water, habitat destruction, and deforestation. This exclusion under environmental_damage is based on the inherent high-impact nature of large-scale gold mining operations. Specific evidence of incidents, regulatory penalties, or remediation efforts at AngloGold Ashanti sites is required to complete this narrative.

Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.

This information is provided for educational and transparency purposes only and should not be relied upon as investment advice. Data is drawn from independent watchdogs, NGOs, government registries, and Ethical Capital's ongoing research — see Research Sources for the full list.
