Investing in Environmental, Social, and Governance with Corbin Advisors SVP Robert McConnaughey

<p>Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) has been a growing trend with some investors. It’s a type of investing that’s not just about making money. ESG investors consider the impact the companies they invest in have on the planet. It’s not a strict formula. Some investors that subscribe to this philosophy focus on one or two areas over the others.</p> <p>Think of ESG as a broad framework where investors buy shares of companies that they feel good about. That’s a trend some companies have leaned into, but that’s not easy either because it’s easy to come off as pandering or disingenuous.</p> <p>Corbin Advisors Senior Vice President, Investor Relations Advisory and Community Impact Robert McConnaughey has a unique perspective on ESG. In his job he advises companies on their ESG strategies. That gives him a unique perspective as he has to help his clients understand that something that seems like an expense can actually be a revenue creator.</p> <p>Companies that have proactively embraced ESG have made that a clear part of their identity.&nbsp; Doing that well, however, comes with challenges because it can backfire in a lot of ways and, if you’re not able to come off as sincere, you can have problems from a skeptical public.</p> <p>McConnaughey joined the 7investing podcast to share his thoughts on ESG and how he advises companies when they decide to embrace this growing trend.</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>Welcome to 7investing.
