During the past decade, governments around the world have promulgated more than 500 new measures that seek to promote the use of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria in making investment decisions. A comprehensive report from global public accounting and consulting firm KPMG International explores these three broad issues related to sustainable investing and its impact on the alternative investment industry: the rate of progress in implementing sustainable investing, the barriers to more rapid progress, and the responses to these barriers.
Key Takeaways
- Governments worldwide are promoting sustainable investing.
- However, institutional investors are taking the lead in implementation.
- “Creating businesses of enduring value” is a key goal.
- Further progress is impeded by data and measurement problems.
- Also, investment outcomes so far are largely uncertain.
