Why It’s Time to Finally Worry about ESG

Robert Eccles, a visiting professor of management practice at Saïd
Business School at the University of Oxford, says that the global
investment community's interest in environmental, social, and
governance (ESG) issues has finally reached a tipping point. Large
asset management firms and pensions funds are now pressuring
corporate leaders to improve sustainability practices in material
ways that both benefit their firms' bottom line and create broader
impact. They're also advocating for more uniform metrics and
industry standards. Eccles is the author of the HBR article “The
Investor Revolution."
