Essay: Perspectives in Sustainable Equity Investing by Guillaume Coqueret (PHD 12)
Sustainable investing has recently gained traction throughout the world. This trend has multiple sources, which span from genuine ethical concerns to hopes of performance boosting, and also encompass risk mitigation. The resulting appetite for green assets is impacting the decisions of many investors.
This book is an up-to-date review of the academic literature on sustainable equity investing. It covers more than 800 academic sources grouped into six thematic chapters.
The author introduces the reader to terms and nomenclature used in the field, surveys the link between sustainability and performance (including risk), details the integration of sustainable criteria in complex portfolio optimization, and reviews the financial liabilities induced by climate change.
This is an ideal reference for ESG-driven financiers (both retail and institutional), corporate sustainability and financial management professionals, and students majoring in finance or economics with some background or interest in ESG concerns.
