Simple and Efficient ESG Integration for Your Clients’ Portfolios
As the demand for environmental, social, and governance-driven investing has increased, so has the need for accurate and reliable data. The FlexShares CORE ESG ETFs utilize the Northern Trust Vector Score to measure the magnitude of ESG issues that are likely to impact current financial performance and a forward-looking directional risk assessment of how a company may handle future issues. In this upcoming webinar, Northern Trust's FlexShares Exchange Traded Funds and ETF Trends will discuss the importance of combining both in order to give investors the ESG impact of an asset’s value over the long term.
SUMMARY
Lara Crigger, Managing Editor of ETF Trends and ETF Database, will moderate a discussion on:
- Important reasons why it is important for investors to take an intentional approach to the integration of ESG considerations into their overall investment process
- An overview of the Northern Trust Vector Score and the journey to create it
- A simple way to incorporate ESG into the core of a well-diversified investment portfolio
