How can investors be guided towards integrating sustainability considerations intro their investment decisions? Why is ESG data essential to doing so? And what are current challenges for regulators in ensuring ESG data quality and consistency?

Prof. Dr. Laura Marie Edinger-Schons’ guest in this episode of The Sustainable Business Podcast is Margarita Pirovska, Director of Policy. Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI). Having started her career in the natural gas and energy sector, she then worked in the sustainable finance sector in the USA and has thus experienced both reporting to ESG agencies, as well as relying on their provided data. Her roles have inspired her take on the importance of reliable and standardized ESG data and continue to help her in the policy department of the RPI today.
