Our humble views on ESG and CSR.
ESG has become a hot topic for our clients. With more money becoming morally sensitive, impact investing has become a theme and institutional investors across the board are scrambling to ensure they can prove to their client base that they care about the environmental and social footprint of their investments.
This trend is still in its infancy. There is a struggle for data points, and we are aware that a lack of coordination and guidance on common reporting expectations is as much a headache to many of our users as their ability to collect and present the requested data points. Despite of that we sure hope the drive towards a sustainable future is here to stay where companies are rewarded for taking their share of responsibility in society and the world.
