ESG, the environmental, social, and governance criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations. Asia has been gaining pace in its progress within the realm of ESG and sustainability. The diversity of different fund markets in Asia means the adoption of ESG in these markets proceeds at a varying pace.
ESG interest in Asia has increased due to a range of factors. Regulatory developments have been key in this
push, since ethical stewardship of businesses reduces risk, especially exposure
to legislative action, regulatory censure, and risky behaviour. In an age of activist consumerism and investment,
it makes sense. What BlackRock is doing
is doing is in line with industry trends, and makes business sense.
