Value-oriented, long-term and sustainable investing is the trend today. Also at Vontobel – but for almost 30 years already. The recent abbreviation “ESG” refers to the use of Environmental, Social and corporate Governance factors to assess companies or countries in terms of their contribution to sustainability.

Up till now, such investment opportunities were in demand mainly from professional and institutional investors. Yet many private investors also consider sustainable investment a convincing approach. What's stopping them from implementing these ideas? In our 3-part series based on a detailed ESG study by Vontobel, learn how the inclusion of ESG criteria can provide investors with solid arguments to support their investment decisions, and even reduce risks and create new return opportunities.

Did you know that intermediaries who address ESG issues often find themselves preaching to the converted? Learn in Part 3 of our series what has motivated ESG investors and where their priorities lie.
