What Is Sustainable Investing?

Ethical investing, environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing, impact investing, socially responsible investing (SRI), values-based investing, conscious investing, green investing, and sustainable investing – there are many names but not yet a standard definition, leaving the term sustainable investing open to interpretation. In short, sustainable investment is considered to be a long-term financial return that makes a positive contribution to society. 

The Rise of Sustainable Investment

Public demand for action on climate change has never been stronger. With the introduction of a wide variety of tax initiatives, pledges to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across value chains , and the launch of a record number of new sustainable investment funds, investors, governments, and corporations alike are leading the fight against climate change, with the goal to significantly reduce carbon emissions by 2030 and ultimately achieve net-zero carbon by 2050. All of this was recently reaffirmed at the G7 Summit 

As a result, the market for sustainable investing has also been steadily growing with more than $21.4 trillion now invested sustainably in global assets. 

Evidence shows (Standard Chartered; UBS Global) that not only has sustainable investment grown rapidly in the last decade, but in 2020, more than US$347 billion was poured into sustainable funds, and sustainable investment themes outperformed the market.
