ESG is The Future of Investing
ESG Investing continues to grow. Younger generations are entering the investment world with an eye on the future, and more investors and institutions are becoming aware of greenwashing and seeking out independent sources. Asset managers looking to attract these conscientious investors will need to offer ESG parameters with their investment advice to stay ahead of the curve.
Floodlight CEO, Nate Wyne said: “With investors becoming more wary of businesses sharing their ESG goals rather than what they are actually doing today, there is a real hunger for the actual hard data. Working with Josh and Suchi is a real meeting of the minds.
