Investors’ Greenwashing Concerns and How to Address ThemGreenwashing is a growing concern among financial market participants. Whether it’s measuring the sustainability performance of companies in a portfolio or ensuring that their own firms and offerings are not making exaggerated claims about their sustainability impacts, asset managers are on the lookout for potential greenwashing risks. Adding to the confusion is a lack of clarity around what defines a sustainable investment, as well as the growing list of regulations and reporting frameworks asset managers need to comply with.
In this episode, we discuss the European Sustainability Reporting Standards, the cornerstone of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, which should pave the way for more accessible and standardized corporate sustainability information. You also hear from Morningstar Sustainalytics’ Ruthann Bartello about the key strategies investors can use to mitigate greenwashing risks in their investment products and across their portfolios.
