Australian Finance Podcast · 🌏 Investing for impact: greenwashing, ESG filters & company engagement · 19 Dec 2022 podcast

So we can just be that sounding board.

They can ask us questions about what we think they should focus on, about who the best provider or partner to do that with could be.

And that's expertise we can provide as investors in the space.

I think our companies actually really appreciate it.

And we've seen some really great outcomes

from from that engagement and we actually run a esg survey every year where we ask asx listed corporates about where they're going and where they have been on esg and sustainability and in last year's survey 93 of companies said that engaging with investors on esg and sustainability was beneficial to their business

And 86% of companies actually had positive business outcomes as a result of an increased focus on ESG and sustainability.

So you can see it's actually really tangible.

And I think that positions us quite well as active investors to do that.

And we actually get a lot of companies saying, hey, I've seen you out there present.

I know that you're really looking for interesting, sustainable businesses.

I think my company might really meet your mandate.

And we actually get a lot of opportunities that way as well.

So it's really important to be out there and educating companies and investors on this topic.

Yeah, that's such an interesting debate, isn't it?

Because I see that a bit.

I look at some of the options out there and I look at their holdings and I think, okay, that's really interesting that that company is in there.

So I guess this ties into the conversation around greenwashing and that's all about...

how authentic is a sustainable fund in its underlying holdings?

So does the label match what's actually in the portfolio?
