Description

Sustainable Investing is fast becoming an essential method of generating long-term returns, moving beyond the negative approaches to socially responsible investing that have dominated the field.  This book, our second on the subject, provides over 15 case studies of leading global investors and companies demonstrating how they successfully apply sustainability aspects to their core strategies.  Learn from prominent thought leaders Dan Esty and Paul Hawken among others who have contributed key chapters.  Our chapter on performance shows clearly how these strategies have been working once negative approaches are parsed out by those examining fund returns.  This book also examines in great depth what data exists, and what's on the horizon, to best measure & capture sustainability successfully.  Regional perspectives, including 3 chapters on Asia, and focuses on Canada, Australia, Africa & India are also included, as is a look across asset classes.    Sustainable Investing, when performed with a positive perspective, has been outperforming the mainstream, unlike negative approaches designed to match benchmark returns.  From eco-efficiency to sustainability-driven innovation and beyond, investors of all shapes & sizes need to know how best to position themselves for the radical market shifts underway.
