Sustainable investing

Introduction

As the global economy evolves to address sustainability issues, companies that most effectively manage the opportunities and risks it creates should be better positioned for long-term success.

A careful consideration of ESG issues plays a key and integral part in how we unlock sustainable investment opportunities.

What are the ESG considerations?

 

Environmental (E)

How companies are making an impact on the
environment by the way they manage their
waste, water use and pollution

Social (S)

How companies engage with and impact their
communities, what their labour practices are,
and more

Governance (G)

How a company is governed, what oversight
and controls they have in place,
the diversity of their board, etc.
