AIMA APAC August FMB Webinar: Investing Through an ESG Lens

Singapore China Japan Hong Kong Australia

AIMA APAC invites you to join our August FMB webinar on 11 August 2020.

One of the key lessons that the global pandemic has taught the world is that investors can no longer afford to view ESG integration as a ‘nice-to-have’ strategy. COVID-19 has highlighted the systemic threats that non-financial risks pose to economies, societies and investments and its potential to materialize into global crises. While many investors have in place a sustainability agenda and have started to incorporate ESG factors into their investment strategies, therein lies challenges around insufficient data, complexity and costs as ESG barriers.

In this discussion, industry experts will cover:

  • Motivations of ESG integration and types of approach
  • How asset owners and alternative fund managers can incorporate materiality in their investments
  • Challenges around ESG integration and how to overcome and make progress
