Exchange traded funds (ETFs) incorporating ESG criteria have experienced rapid growth in the last few months in particular, and are expected to garner even more investment as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic.
The construction of ESG fixed income ETFs differs from its equities counterparts. And in light of their recent market resilience versus equivalent standard benchmarks, now is the time for investors to explore the opportunities and investment outline of the asset group.
This webinar will focus on how sustainability and ESG criteria work in fixed income index investing and related ETFs, and looks to cover:
- The difference between ESG in equities vs fixed income index investing
- What is holding investors back from fixed income index investing?
- How can we advance the market?
- How have fixed income ETFs reacted to recent market turmoil?
- How will these investments perform if we see future market turbulence?
Tune in and join the discussion through Q&A.
