Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth: DIY Investor Magazine 28

If Covid-19 heightened our sense of mortality, it is the issue of climate change that has gathered momentum like no other; if we could prop up a bar, Greta Thunberg’s ‘A Year to Change the World’ and Netflix’ ‘Seaspiracy’ would  be hot topics.

Whereas to prioritise sustainability, responsibility and social-impact was once to compromise investment return, that is patently no longer the case; the challenge is to identify companies that are passionately committed to delivering products and services that will materially impact on the future in a positive way.

Judicious choice should prove self-fulfilling as the most adroit and inventive companies will continue to attract investment, enabling them to reward investors with income and capital growth.

Inevitably it will take time to agree how companies’ ESG credentials can be measured and compared, but it is significant that asset managers are collaborating to agree industry-wide solutions. Issue 28 features:
