Inside Story of ESG episode 3: Culture Wars

Loading player...
In this episode, interviewees explain how political ‘flip-flopping’ on plans for a net-zero economy is discouraging asset managers from taking a stance on ESG. Morningstar’s ESG research lead for North America, ESG whistleblower Desiree Fixler, and other interviewees explain the impact this is having on the US sustainable investment industry – and what financial services firms worldwide can take away from the US ‘culture wars’ on ESG.
