Investing for a Sustainable Future
Setup
Featured Ideas Festival Scholar includes Carlos Pierre. Over the past several years, responsible investing has evolved from an alternative concept to a mainstream approach. Investors ranging from pension funds to large asset managers to individual investors are increasingly focused on integrating environmental, social, and governance factors into investment decision making. Join investor Jeremy Grantham, B Lab founder Jay Coen Gilbert, and SASB’s Janine Guillot as they discuss this evolution as well as offer tools and strategies investors can use to integrate sustainability into their portfolios.
