As the world grapples with multiple global crises in climate, healthcare and inequality, we expect profound policy shifts that will reshape capital markets. Potential new taxes or environmental regulations raise transition risks for many companies, but may also create opportunities for others.
What is ESG Integration and Engagement?
We integrate material ESG factors into most of AB’s actively managed strategies. Our investment teams use AB's proprietary tools to determine which ESG issues are material to performance, how they can be integrated into investment decisions, and to encourage the businesses they own to take them into account. Ultimately, we believe there is no substitute for bottom-up research by our industry experts that provide insights on material ESG issues that could help us enhance our clients' risk-adjusted returns.
Building Portfolios With Purpose:
Dedicated ESG Focus
Dedicated ESG Focus
AB’s Portfolios with Purpose aim to achieve financial objectives with a dedicated ESG focus. Though ESG considerations and engagement are a foundation, many investors want solutions that can enable them to invest for financial objectives—and do so with purpose. Because responsible investing isn’t “one size fits all”, we’ve developed a diverse range of portfolios that have an explicit ESG agenda in their investing processes.
