Most companies view ESG objectives as opportunities to positively impact shareholder value. They also evaluate ESG risks and work towards mitigating them to avoid any negative impact to company value. Therefore, it makes sense that investors would want to know how a company manages its responsible investment practices.
Today, corporations make ESG disclosure public and available for investors, similar to how financial disclosure is made.
The BMO Sustainable Opportunities Global Equity Fund is an example of a fund that invests in the companies best at managing the risks and opportunities associated with responsible investment.
