Portfolio company Neighborly describes how, in addition to the potential social impact, ESG investments are important to reduce non-financial risks that may not be immediately visible to many investors.
So how does the investment community turn this momentum into implementation? It starts by each investor understanding that EVERY portfolio makes an impact. Some investors want their portfolios to make an impact on environmental issues such as fighting climate change or on social issues including ensuring gender diversity on corporate boards. Others want the impact to be maximizing return on investment. While investment goals and impact are unique to each client, all share in the need to manage risk with relevant data. All investors want to be fully informed and aware of the risks they face with each investment. Are you ignoring any risks in your investment portfolio that may affect your outcomes? Using ESG Integration to solidify risk metrics is timely for all types of investors everywhere.
