Green Investing is one of the fastest growing sectors of the capital markets, yet it’s still one of the most misunderstood. Investors want their money to align with their social and environmental values, but finding a path through the thicket of products, companies, industries and ratings is trickier than ever. The Green Investor, powered by Investopedia, will explore the present and future frontiers of ESG, SRI and Impact investing, and the companies and leaders who are shaping the landscape. Hosted by Investopedia Editor-in-Chief Caleb Silver, The Green Investor will feature interviews with the most influential executives, academics, investors, and policy makers in ESG. Listeners will learn how to invest with environmental and sustainable frameworks, trends to watch as the industry grows, and resources to help them on their green investing journey.
