ESG Global Advisors CEO and Senior Advisor Dustyn Lanz were interviewed by The Globe and Mail for the article, Investors forcing change on companies with lagging ESG principles.
Quote from Sarah Keyes: “Investors want to understand how companies are identifying, assessing and managing ESG and particularly, climate change risks and opportunities,” she says. “They’ve been thinking about ESG and integrating it into their investment process for longer, so they’re really driving the frameworks that companies are using.”
Quote from Dustyn Lanz, who was CEO of the Responsible Investment Association at the time of interview: “Do my investments reduce emissions? Did my money contribute to improved diversity or human rights protections? Did my mutual fund help get more climate-conscious directors on a company’s board? I think investors want answers to these questions,” he says.
