The interconnectedness of E, S & G

“It’s been great to connect with individuals once again, to finally meet folks in my network in person. One of my key takeaways is the shift in thinking about ESG through risk management to real outcomes and impact. We need to start thinking of how we measure performance through three dimensions: risk, return, and impact outcomes. My second takeaway is the increasing realisation of how difficult it is to disentangle the E, the S and the G of ESG. We can’t think about these in vertical isolation, and in 2023 I expect to see more of an emphasis of their interconnectedness,” said Julie Moret, Global Head of Sustainable Investing and Stewardship at Northern Trust Asset Management.
