Disclosure: the creator of this article is affiliated with the company. However, I have done my best to keep the tone neutral and to focus on relevant milestones in the company's history, such as the opinion solicited from the Department of Labor stating that SRI investment options are not inconsistent with fiduciary standards. This might not sound like much, but it was a turning point in the industry, relieving fiduciaries from concerns that offering SRI products might get them into trouble. There were additional milestones which I omitted because online third-party sources were not available, such as the fact that Calvert was the first mutual fund family to divest from South Africa during apartheid -- and the first to re-enter when apartheid ended. I am hopeful that the community can help craft this article to meet Wikipedia's standards, rather than delete without considered review. Thanks. Ndvail (talk) 14:04, 21 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

This would be better off in prose, it will help address the advert tag.--LedgerTom (talk) 22:57, 18 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

This company was acquired by Eaton Vance Corporation and this page is no longer accurate.
