A few years ago, sustainable investments were seen primarily as a sacrifice made based on individual values, but today, environmental, social or governance factors (ESG) are essential for the long-term sustainable growth of a company. There is a growing body of empirical evidence, including our own KPMG research, showing that companies with a good ESG rating and a truly sustainable track record perform well in long-term investment portfolios, making ESG an inevitable part of the strategies of major asset managers. ESG has also transformed the way investors think, and there is a growing expectation that investments should be assessed and monitored from this perspective too.
To satisfy client needs, KPMG can help among other things with the following:
- Exploring and collating ESG data to support subsequent analyses.
- Drafting investment strategies, policies, client disclosures and other regulations, taking ESG considerations into account.
- Preparing tools to support and analyse ESG decisions.
- Preparing for ESG ratings.
- Business planning, review of existing business plans.
