Take inspiration from insightful information
Nice guys finish last. Not necessarily.
A wave of public outcry is encouraging businesses to take on more responsibility for how their actions are shaping the world. Front and center is the role companies are playing in tackling key issues such as climate change, inclusiveness, and inequality. And as powerful enterprises become more aware of their environmental and social impact, so are the individuals or entities that invest in these companies.
UN Sustainable Development Goals: A Global Plan for Building a Sustainable Economy
On September 25, 2015, the member countries of the United Nations (UN) adopted the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), an action plan to fight against poverty, safeguard the planet and improve the lives of people around the world.
Integrating the UN Sustainable Development Goals into an investment philosophy
At NBI, we have been using SDGs in our sustainable suite since 2020, with some of our external managers having used them for over a decade (their predecessor being Millennium Development Goals). This discussion focuses on why these goals have been so enthusiastically adopted by investors. |
