Investors are increasing their pressure on companies over environmental, social and governance (ESG) issues, though their actual investment strategies may trail behind their publicly stated good intentions. A new survey finds that almost half of the top 50 investors have gone public with their ESG strategy through the publication of so-called “position papers”, underlining their commitment to a change in investment strategy. They have also signed up in large numbers to abide by the guidance of campaign bodies such as the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). They are also committing to other advice such as that offered by the G20 Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures and the Workforce Disclosure Initiative.
