Auquan CEO Chandini Jain has a new byline in Environmental Finance: ESG at the Crossroads.
"Every finance industry participant cares about ESG, regardless of their personal or public position on ESG.
Why? ESG provides the most useful framework for identifying and assessing material non-financial company-specific risks and opportunities, and for evaluating those as part of making investment and credit decisions.
ESG's growth was always driven more by the imperative to improve long-term returns than by ideology or marketing.
This is why we’re starting to see a substantial shift in ESG priorities toward these fundamentals.
And less reliance on ESG scores in favor of AI solutions that address the unique needs and priorities of each firm."
