With climate change increasingly on the global agenda, investors and the financial sector are starting to factor environmental, social and governance factors into investment decisions. In collaboration with Mazars, OMFIF has produced ‘ESG and US asset management: The future is now’. In the virtual launch of the report, which includes a brief overview of key findings, panellists discuss investment approaches to ESG, data metrics and standards, the political and policy environment impacting approaches to ESG, as well as opportunities and developments in ESG processes.
Panellists:
Jonathan Bailey, Head of ESG Investing, Neuberger Berman
Flora Chao, Global Head of Funding, Treasury Market Operations, International Finance Corporation
Brandon Cooperman Senior Manager, Mazars Group
Kaitlin Bergan, Director, Sustainable Investing, BlackRock
Moderated by: Patricia Haas Cleveland, US President, OMFIF
