ESG Investor Concerns
Summary
As part of FSL’s monitoring of key drivers within the financial services sector, we examine results from the latest research. The 2021 UK Responsible Investing Study by Research in Finance (RiF) details the top environmental, social, and governance concerns among both retail and institutional investors. Therefore, for both retail and institutional investors, climate change, pollution and carbon emissions are the top three most important environmental concerns. Similarly to environmental concerns, both retail and institutional investors placed workers rights as the most crucial social issue. Also, as information about the sustainability of an organisation becomes more readily available, there will be an even greater focus on ESG performance, with investors rewarding companies that create long-term value for society.
