Financial Materiality

The Materiality Series

An increasing number of institutional investors are becoming interested in approaches to asset management that explicitly include environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) criteria or metrics where they are or may become relevant to investment performance.

While there are increasing pressures for investment managers to address these issues, however, they generally receive little consideration from brokerage house analysts and policy-makers.

The UNEP FI Materiality Series is an effort to close this gap by delivering and analysing financial research on how ESG issues impact company share price.
