Panel discussion on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing

US domiciled assets under management using sustainable responsible investing strategies increased 38% in two years to $12 trillion at the start of of 2018.¹ Clearly more than a narrow niche.

Learn about ESG and mission-aligned investing, whether it is possible to invest responsibly to make a positive environmental/social impact without sacrificing investment returns. What are non-profits and endowments doing? Are there risks to not investing with an ESG focus?

Come with your questions and opinions, leave with new mission investing financial literacy.
