Episode Forty-Four: The Importance of ESG In Responsible Business

Why Increasing Data Is Helping Drive ESG Interests

You can’t run a business or an investment portfolio without thinking about the health of the economy, which is based on the social & environmental substrate on which the economy sits.
 

Joining us on the podcast is Gordon Hagart, Independent Investment Consultant and Special Advisor to the Institutional Investors Roundtable, who demystifies Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and its role in responsible business. Gordon explores the drivers and catalysts responsible for the business shift towards sustainability priorities, why ESG is moving from a CSR function to a CFO responsibility and how alternative data sources are helping increase ESG’s opportunities.
