Lorna Finlayson, Jonny Powling, Richard Small, and Jan Gruter, our ESG experts in the Wealth and Asset Management team, have recently spoken to a number of asset management clients and trade bodies on developments in the ESG space.

The team is helping a number of clients assess the impact of recent ESG developments and is running client sessions focussing on: 

• Investors' expectations around ESG 
• The EU's developing ESG framework for asset managers, including detailed disclosure and reporting requirements
• Impact of Brexit

Recent roundtables have included a session with a global asset manager and private bank and an interactive webinar for fund managers hosted by Scottish Financial Enterprise.  The team is also advising on a number of ESG related projects and a fuller overview of AG's capabilities in this space can be found here.

If your firm sees the benefit of an exploratory ESG focussed session, please contact our experts. The content can be flexed to specific needs and interests, and it can be hosted via video conference.
