9TH & 10TH SEPTEMBER 2020 | VIRTUAL EVENT
The 2019 edition of the World Economic Forum's 'Global Risks Report', ranks 7 of the top 10 future threats to the world as ESG-related factors. The failure to address climate change, water crisis', income, gender and religious inequalities, plus legal, regulatory, and social standards, are all perils that investment owners need to be mindful of, when allocating. Those who not only mitigate risks but seek to address them, are poised to stand out and thrive.
The Institutional ESG Investment Summit unites the community of senior investment officers, ESG and responsible investing experts from pension plans, insurers, foundations, endowment funds, and other institutional asset owner categories to explore the most pressing challenges and opportunities to developing world class ESG investment approaches and standards.
