Recenzje

"Sustainable investing isn't just for socially minded do-gooders, but has become one of the fastest growing parts of the wealth management industry, and the extraordinary array of contributors to this volume explain why. If Homo sapiens is to survive to the next millennium, the species will have to put these ideas into practice sooner rather than later." - Andrew Lo, MIT Sloan School of Management

"This is an engaging book encompassing a wealth of knowledge for anyone interested in sustainable investing: from the experienced investor who wants to better understand the field of sustainable investing to the intellectually curious business leader who wants to learn more about what it is and how it can be practiced." - George Serafeim, Harvard Business School

"This impressive book shows why market transformation is imperative and how business and finance can build a safe and livable future." - Dr. Herbert Diess, CEO Volkswagen AG

"This book argues convincingly that sustainable investing is becoming mainstream, as increasing numbers of asset owners, investment managers and companies take steps toward addressing longer-term challenges facing businesses and society. The question is not whether these commitments are welcome - they are - but whether they will be anywhere near enough to address our climate crisis and accomplish the Just Transition so necessary in the decade ahead." - Al Gore and David Blood, Generation Investment Management

"As the global Zeitgeist has shifted, the vision of a sustainable future is within reach. The investment universe will play a big role in implementing ESG into the fabric of the economic system. This insightful book shows that we already have the ideas and, yes, the means to get it done." - Asoka Wöhrmann, CEO DWS
