Investors are increasingly integrating ESG factors into their investment process, as evidenced by the rapid growth in ESG-related assets under management globally. ESG integration influences the strategic objective setting, portfolio management, risk management and stewardship and engagement efforts of investors. Many corporate issuers across regions are therefore expecting more scrutiny from their investors and boards on their ESG and sustainability strategies. Understanding ESG risks and opportunities from the perspective of investors is therefore valuable for issuers.  The express talk aims to provide companies with a sense of how investors may think about ESG factors across the entire investment process.
