| dc.description.abstract | Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) funds have grown dramatically. It is estimated that funds with ESG focus have assets under management USD37.8 trillion, which is likely to grow to over USD50 trillion by 2025 (Diab and Adams. 2021). ESG risks are now better understood than ever before. Internationally, large banks have well-capitalized programs with ESG and impact platforms, pay-for-success and green bonds, and toolkits for social capacity building. A study by the European multinational financial services company Allianz found that 64% of millennials were likely to make investment decisions based on societal problems that are important to them (Allianz. 2019) Till recently, many writers felt that ESG investing was a passing fad. That is no longer true. ESG investing has grown its roots firmly. This article explores the areas of ESG investing. I discuss how incentives are created for ESG investing, financial models/approaches for achieving focus on ESG issues. Finally, I look at the roadblocks that inhibit ESG investing. | en_US |
