SEEING ESG THROUGH A U.S. LENS

 

MARINA SEVERINOVSKY | Head of Sustainability – North America, Schroders

It is important for asset managers to engage U.S. investors in the sustainable investing conversation in a way that will resonate with them. Across geographies, the political spectrum, and generational cohorts, the asset management industry can seek to meet American investors on their own terms, in relation to their objectives and priorities. From a risk mitigation standpoint and from the perspective of capturing better long-term returns, we believe U.S. clients, no less than those in other regions, can benefit from having ESG considerations integrated into their investments.
