Description

After more than 16 years leading the US Forum for Sustainable and Responsible Investment, CEO Lisa Woll is stepping down. In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast, she reflects on how sustainable investing has changed during that time, and where she sees the field going next following US SIF's latest biennial report on sustainable investing.  That report identified $8.4 trillion in total US sustainable investment assets under management at the beginning of 2022. To put that figure in context, $8.4 trillion is 12.6% of total US assets under professional management.  US SIF's mission is to "rapidly shift investment practices toward sustainability, focusing on long-term investment and the generation of positive social and environmental impacts." The forum, which currently has members that collectively represent about $5 trillion in assets under management or advisement, recently released its biennial report on sustainable investing.   Listen to our episode on the US Securities and Exchange Commission's climate disclosure rule here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unpacking-implications-of-the-secs-proposed/id1475521006?i=1000555972416   Listen to our episode on the US Securities and Exchange Commission's fund rules here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unpacking-the-secs-proposed-esg-fund-rules/id1475521006?i=1000568442096   Check out our episode on the US Department of Labor's rule on using ESG funds in 401k funds and pension plans here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-esg-implications-of-a-proposed-us-labor-department-rule/id1475521006?i=1000489230036   We'd love to hear from you.
