CAIA London & CFA Society United Kingdom
Exploring ESG integration in fixed income and alternatives
Monday, December 9, 2019
London
As sustainable investment continues to grow and develop in sophistication across the asset classes, this panel discussion brought to you by the CFA UK ESG working group, seeks to explore market developments and emerging best practice regarding ESG integration in Fixed Income and Alternatives.
In 2018, the Global Sustainable Investment Alliance estimated that Fixed Income represented ~36% of the total US.7 trillion of sustainable investing assets. Meanwhile, alternative asset classes were estimated at less than 10% of the total despite the positive growth trajectory of alternative asset classes over the last five years. Both asset classes may represent the next leg of growth for sustainable investment broadening beyond public equity.
The panel offers the opportunity to hear insights from leading professionals from both investment management and investment consultancy firms with strong capabilities in Fixed Income and Alternative Asset Classes.
Topics that will be explored during the discussion include:
- Best practice ESG integration techniques
- Data challenges
- Active ownership
- Areas of future market growth
Following the panel discussion, there will be plenty of time for Q&A for attendees to join the conversation.
We hope that attendees will also offer their insights and to share their knowledge with the broader group.
Speakers
Honor Fell - Vice President, Redington Ltd
Jason Mitchell - Co-Head of Responsible Investment for Man Group Plc
