The high profile disasters and loss of shareholder value at BP and TEPCO have put it in the news, but examining and integrating environmental, social and governance factors into investment decision making is a growing trend.

Please join us for a Boston Security Analysts Society Luncheon Program on September 27th to learn more about New Measures of Risk and Return: Why Investors are Integrating Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Factors into the Investment Process

Panelists:

• Noel Friedman, CFA – Vice President ESG Business Development, MSCI
• Michael Cantara, CFA – Institutional Portfolio Manager and Co-Chairperson of MFS Responsible Investment Committee, MFS Investment Management

Voluntary, regulatory and market-driven initiatives have vastly increased the quantity and quality of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) information available to investors and investment managers. Coupled with growing evidence from the experience of early adopters, the stage has been set for a much wider audience to consider the competitive advantages of ESG factor integration. Our panelists will provide a practitioner-oriented perspective on the how and why of integrating ESG factors into the mainstream investment process.
