Abstract

Sustainable investing integrates and includes ESG factors in the investment decision. In this chapter, we explore the underlying themes behind ESG, which has been a main investor topic throughout the twenty-first century; however, the integration in a tangible framework is growing fast. Today, there is no international common approved standard for preparing sustainability ratings and analysis. As a result, these are harder to derive and often at a poorer quality compared to traditional financial data. Given the often relatively poor standard of ESG-related data, the aggregated financial community seems not yet to have fully embraced tangibly sustainable investing altogether; however, this is currently changing at a very fast pace on an international basis, which we explore.
