How Three Schroders Portfolios Target the “S” in ESG Strategies

Author: Paul Ellis July 7, 2024 Duration: 0:00
As companies and investors continue to navigate the 3D-reset themes of decarbonization, deglobalization and demographic change, Schroders believes that it is important to consider the practical investment implications of these broad trends. In 2024, Schroders sees investors transitioning from simply thinking of ESG risk management and integration to an increasing focus on sustainable opportunities and themes to harness for value creation. To shed more light on this rich and exciting investment area, we have three portfolio managers with us today. Chris Damm is an Assistant PM on the US Multi-Sector Fixed Income Team at Schroders; Valerie Harrington is a Fund Manager at BlueOrchard, an Impact Investment manager owned by Schroders and Uzo Ekwue is a Fund Manager on the Global Thematic and UK Equity teams at Schroders.

Hosted by Paul Ellis, The Sustainable Finance Podcast is a resource for investors and financial advisors looking to move beyond the buzzwords and understand the practical realities of integrating environmental, social, and governance principles into portfolios. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a series of direct conversations with the people shaping the industry-from asset managers and analysts to corporate leaders and policy experts. Each episode digs into how sustainability metrics are being applied, what constitutes genuine impact versus marketing, and where the real financial opportunities and risks lie. You'll hear detailed discussions on evolving regulations, new investment vehicles, and the tangible data driving decisions. By focusing on these candid interviews with pioneers, the podcast provides a clear-eyed view of a rapidly changing landscape, offering actionable insights for anyone navigating the intersection of capital and responsibility. Tune in for a grounded perspective that equips you to participate in this critical shift within modern finance.
