The growth of environmental and socially responsible investing has rapidly accelerated in recent years.

 

Investors are increasingly recognizing the importance of positive impact beyond financial returns and are doubling down on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) funds.

This trend is expected to continue in the future: The U.S. alone is predicted to see a more than twofold increase in ESG-mandated assets from $12 trillion in 2018 to $34.5 trillion in 2025.
