As ESG performance has grown significantly in importance for companies and asset managers in recent years, it's time to look at the numbers.

Is ESG screening a worthwhile tool? In a word, yes!

High ESG focus contributes to risk mitigation and in this session, we will share with you our research which shows that this is also mirrored in strong operational and share price performance. We will also share how predictive attributes (e.g future earnings stability and share price volatility) suggest that ESG research belongs in company valuation.

This live session (with Q&A) will give you insight into why we believe that companies and investors simply cannot afford not to care.

A few years ago "ESG” was just a page at the back of a presentation. Today it has achieved greater prominence with new initiatives such as impact investing and the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals. However, questions still remain about what ESG integration really means and whether the increasing use of frameworks and questionnaires is distracting from engagement.

This expert panel will look at what ESG integration means and at the practical implementation of ESG considerations within portfolios. They will discuss whether ESG can be implemented, at best, without negatively impacting returns or whether there is recent evidence that it can actually benefit both risk and return.

While impact investing dominates the headlines, most of the assets that firms manage on behalf of their clients integrate an assessment of ESG factors into their process but do not tilt towards sustainable investments. The panel will discuss this issue and the likely future trends in ESG investment including how ESG fits in with the Mega trends defined by the PRI or WEF.

In this webinar, we will introduce metrics to evaluate how an equity portfolio is positioned for some of the biggest sustainability issues facing investors today including the energy transition, ESG opportunities, and financially material ESG issues. We will also describe techniques for incorporating these themes into the portfolio.

The debate surrounding the use of ESG tools and information is clearly favouring ESG as a tool for lower risk and enhancing return.

In the live webinar, we explain why companies and investors need to be thinking about ESG and intangibles to enable better performance and will take questions on ESG topics.

We review;

* the latest academic evidence on why ESG adds value
* the latest frontiers of ESG, use of SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals)
* debates on the imperfection of Sustainability Ratings and divestment campaigns
* stewardship codes and increasing regulatory interest in ESG

Many investors want to engage in impact investing and feel strongly about societal issues they want to try and solve. But most people don’t know where to start, what investment opportunities exist, and how to figure out what makes sense for them.

To help listeners cut through the hype, we will offer some ideas about what funds and products are available, how to access them, some of the possible pitfalls and how to find an impact investment strategy that works. We will focus the discussion on impact funds in the context of trends for the impact sector as a whole.

This webinar will cover:
- Why does anybody invest in impact?
- How to cut through the hype about impact investing? What can I actually do today that makes sense?
- What are HNWIs, Family Offices, and Institutions investing in (investment themes, solving problems, asset classes, alignment)?
- Why do people invest in impact funds? What are the trade-offs? What works and what doesn’t? What to look for in an Impact Fund?
- Lots of specific examples
- Q&A

You’ll hopefully leave this webinar with a clearer view on how you can invest to solve the world’s biggest problems.

All welcome to join.
