Schroders has announced its intention to integrate ESG across all of its investments by 2020.
Schroders’ Sustainability Accreditation, which was launched by the firm in 2017, currently encompasses more than 50% (£230 billion) of its assets. Schroders has targeted covering 100% of its funds by the end of 2020.
The accreditation includes ‘Screened’, ‘Integrated’, ‘Sustainable’ and ‘Impact’ categories and is designed to help the firm’s clients distinguish how ESG factors are considered across its products.
