VIRTUAL MEETING
MidCareer Bridge: Responsible Investing: Definitions, Investments and Careers
|
|
Get an overview of responsible investment and its interrelationship with environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors. Many corporates are increasingly searching for ways to enhance the integration of ESG into their business models. The current pandemic and global systemic trends, such as climate change and social unrest, have brought responsible investing to the forefront for asset owners, investment managers, policymakers and citizens globally.
Responsible investing may be implemented in diverse ways, including by asset and firm type. Hear real-life examples of how responsible investing is implemented in practice. Learn about the financial services industry's current state of measurement and how investment performance relates to sustainability. Glean insights into the different career paths in the field and how to participate, leveraging your skills and experience in other areas of finance.
