ESG and Asset Management

The Environment, Social, and Governance approach to organizational measurement represents the movement away from only having a financial bottom line to having a triple bottom line – and as many bottom lines as desired to serve your mission. We are honored to be engaging ESG experts in discussions about how to have a structured approach to asset management support upcoming ESG regulations in the financial industry. Peader Duffy and Mary Adams generated a couple of information rich highlights during last week’s ALN Th@3 pm ET. They will provide even more in-depth insights on the web program “Value, ESG, and ISO Governance Standards“ Tuesday 24 January at 3 pm ET. Register at this link.
