Environmental, social and governance Factors are being applied across preexisting portfolios and new funds and trackers are being created along ESG lines.

But how far do the E, the S and the G go in determining what is a good investment, and what is merely a good ambition?

What really makes it worthwhile for an adviser or investor in interrogating what the ESG credentials of a fund or stock really are?

Joining Simoney Kyriakou, editor of Financial Adviser on the FTAdviser Podcast to discuss these issues are: Adam Robbins, senior investor relationship manager in the UK for Triodos Investment Management; Delyth Richards, head of Kleinwort Hambros' client solutions group, and Angus Parker, head of developed equities & global equity climate change fund manager, HSBC Global Asset Management.
