Demand is ramping up for investments to meet environmental, social and governance standards. But is the impact an investor is hoping to achieve the same as a fund will deliver? ESG can take many guises so what really makes an impact? Join us on Shared Lunch this week as we discuss this dilemma and much much more with Dr Sebastian Gehricke from Otago University's Climate & Energy Finance Group.

Shared Lunch is a conversation with experts, CEOs, and you. Each week we alternate between an interview with a company leader and an industry deep dive. Episodes are hosted by BusinessDesk journalists including Frances Cook and Dan Brunskill.
