Strategy sustainable investment solution Several years ago, we sought to align our strategies with sustainability and transition our portfolios to that approach. The goal of our sustainable strategies is to offer attractive risk-adjusted returns, and to have a positive impact on the environment and society. We believe ESG is not just about reducing risk. It鈥檚 about embracing change for the future. Companies that react on climate change reduce their risk of sitting on stranded assets. It鈥檚 essential for companies to be well-regarded by all of their stakeholders in order to attract talent and avoid controversies that might lead to a lawsuit. Improvements on the governance side, such as being more transparent and inclusive, should help companies add value for investors over the long term.
