What we know from financial institutions

While the number of sustainability commitments from financial institutions is increasing, a gap still remains between the ambitious commitments being set and the real-world actions being seen. Our research, done in partnership with Women Action Sustainability (WAS), identified key insights, challenges and recommendations when aiming to bridge this gap in the financial sector.

Here are our four main takeaways:

ESG integration and performance are gaining considerable relevance among both institutional and private investors
Risk management emerged as a strong bridge between sustainability and finance; sustainability is seen as a reliable tool to ensure long-term resilience
Climate change is still the main topic of concern
Most investors prefer inclusionary and impact investment in their strategy, calling for a strategic engagement with investees rather than excluding high emitters from their portfolios
