We are dedicating our podcasts as a forum to highlight our ongoing Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives within each team’s investment process. Patrick Kaser and Jim Clarke of the Fundamental Equity team discuss how ESG factors are integrated into their investment process and highlight some of their favorite research examples. Ultimately, Patrick and Jim underscore that ESG analysis should be an inherent part of evaluating price and information risk, particularly for equity investors who conduct bottom-up research.
