Investment indexes can be constructed to reduce carbon companies by up to 50% without a reduction in returns and at the same time position investments to do better than the index if and when the market substantially moves away from carbon. Source is an article titled. A new investment strategy — proposed by Mats Andersson, Patrick Bolton and Frederic Samama and published in the CFA Institute Financial Analysts Journal of May/June 2016 — "aims to track broad stock indexes while also removing much of the carbon footprint of the index." An analysis and discussion of this article was published on December 28, 2016 by Pensions and Investments titled "Can climate change investment strategies withstand the Trump effect? An innovative investment strategy could alleviate investor fears" by Barbara S. Petitt, managing editor, CFA Institute Financial Analysts Journal. The article contains a link to the source study itself.

As opposed to bank robbery, where one or more persons unlawfully takes money at the point of force or threat of force, bankcrime refers to the owners of the bank who either explicitly violate laws and rules or take inordinately outsized risks using the assets of the bank to make profits. Bankcrime also implies that the scale of the illegal or immoral activity is so large and pervasive that the risk of prosecution is inversely proportional to the size of the bank because such institutions are "too big to fail" and therefore politically immune.
