ESG Investing 101

If you are an investment manager, you’re probably well aware that ESG (environmental, social and governance) investing is an increasingly important part of the investment world.

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing – also known as sustainable or socially responsible investing – means taking into account environmental, social and other non-financial factors when making financial decisions. This can mean investing in companies that practice more sustainable business practices and avoid companies engaged in harmful activities.

ESG investing has quickly grown into a major force that is growing exponentially with every year. With the rapid growth comes a growing need for investment managers to understand what ESG is all about – or at least what the basics are.
