This week's Smart Investing is focused on the theme of ESG - an acronym that has gained tremendous popularity as interest from investors, advisers, institutions and regulators has brought it to the fore over recent years.
In this edition, we discuss the different ESG investment approaches and strategies investors can incorporate into their portfolios, and provide a snapshot of ESG investment trends and product flows. We also include a Q&A with John Galloway, our Global Head of Investment Stewardship, on how Vanguard advocates for high standards of corporate governance at the companies in which we invest.
