发生了什么?

高盛公司在上周为公司和投资者举办了一场会议,讨论环境、社会和管理责任(ESG)如何影响他们,以及如何在剧烈变化到来时不至于损失他们的投资。

这意味着什么?

气候变化以及其对能源行业的影响是会议讨论的重点,尤其是近期的一份报告估计(气候)危机将让全球最大的公司们损失高达1万亿美元。

部分公司将可再生能源视为应对危机的长远方案,但他们仍无法解决存储可再生能源的问题。

与此同时,对气候危害较煤炭更小的天然气就成为他们的首选替代能源。

投资者并不是出于利他的目的进行这些讨论:研究表明,顶级ESG基金的回报率要高于那些负有更少社会责任的竞争者。

为什么我需要关注此事

对于您个人来说:管理始于自身

《华尔街日报》近期的一篇报道指出,排名前十的ESG基金中有8家基金投资了石油公司和天然气公司,这也许不符合您对“关注环境”的基金的预期。

对于ESG基金的监管并不多,这可能部分源于对什么才是合格的ESG基金并没有统一的定义。

同时,由于这些基金通常追踪股票市场大盘,他们不得不进行广泛的投资,这也包括负有更少社会责任的板块。

对于市场来说:投资者一直在采取行动

机构投资者可能更担心ESG投资领域过于拥挤。专注于ESG领域的基金买入具有更高ESG评级公司的股票,而需求的上涨导致公司估值上涨。

根据高盛公司的数据,这类公司的股票价格较整体大盘高40%。而这有可能妨碍潜在的投资者进行投资,他们可能转而在其他地方寻找更便宜的投资机会。
