Why ethical investments have become an investor darling

Simon and Marcus hog the pod this week as they take a deeper dive into popular investing trend ESG investing, a £10bn UK sector. They look to the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) framework that fund managers use to assess the softer metrics of a business; they discuss why this approach has the potential for superior returns and how performance data against regular investments is looking good thus far; and finish with a fund, an investment trust, and a passive ETF as examples of sustainable investments.
