Is ESG investing the right solution for the problems we’re experiencing globally? And is it possible that this “solution” can cause adverse effects?
In our ESG series, we’ve covered the cost of ESG investing – now we’re looking at the potential benefits and results.
We’re also looking at real-world examples of how companies are being evaluated and compared – what makes one company “Brown” and another company “Green”? Is it a fair comparison? And what’s the trickle-down effect on the consumer?
While the concept of ESG investing seems like a no-brainer that everyone should be on board with, it’s important to know all the facts, something that your advisor might help you with.
