Sustainability Community

In my research, I have noticed that retail and small investors often don't integrate ESG factors into their investment decisions, despite the growing industry emphasis on sustainability.

But at the same institutional investors have no issues bcz they already have tools and knowledge.

Do you agree with this statement?

Hello Abhinav,
There may be several reasons why smaller investors show limited ESG integration. For example: limited resources, an underdeveloped tech stack, the complexity of ESG (which isn't always straightforward or modernized), and particularly low data visibility-especially in private markets. What are your thoughts on this?

On the other hand, larger firms tend to prioritize ESG given that the FCA mandates compliance with the TCFD framework.
