BEYOND ESG I Future Investment Initiative 6th Edition
NOW: Proponents and critics agree that ESG remains a force in finance. But in 2022, investor outflows have exceeded inflows for the first time since the rise of ESG-themed products, and influential ESG experts have publicly stated the belief that the acronym needs to disappear. In today’s volatile, unpredictable markets – roiled by war, supply chain disruption, and steep rate hikes – investors have refocused on fundamentals, dislodging ESG from top-of-mind. The label has proven controversial, with regulatory and legal action casting shadows over market makers.
NEXT: What is the future of ESG? Has it become a slightly quaint ‘good neighbor’ score destined for the dustbin? Or will ESG itself see a rally and make a second run at the market? How can ESG be beneficial to investors?
