Esmé van Herwijnen, SRI analyst at EdenTree Investment Management, suggests sustainable investing is an approach with a long-term view. “Investors would typically look for companies that are good corporate citizens with strong ESG policies. Sustainable investing can be very powerful as it aims to align investment practices with principles and provides better risk management; it also allows better stewardship and thus influences companies to improve practices,” she explains.
