ESG
A set of criteria focusing on environmental, social, and governance factors used to evaluate companies and investments. ESG investing aims to promote sustainability, ethical practices, and responsible management.
ESG criteria help investors integrate sustainability and social responsibility into portfolio decisions. Funds and companies evaluated on ESG may avoid controversies, align with ethical standards, and attract socially conscious capital. ESG investing can be applied in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or ETFs.
ESG is like a conscience for investing — encouraging decisions that balance profit with positive impact.
Real world: Screening companies for carbon emissions, board diversity, and ethical conduct before investing demonstrates ESG principles in action.
💡 ESG provides a framework for investing responsibly, balancing financial goals with ethical and environmental considerations.
