ESG investing refers to the practice of incorporating Environmental, Social and Governance factors into the investment decision-making process. This approach goes beyond traditional financial analysis, assessing how a company's operations impact the environment, how they manage relationships with employees, suppliers, customers and communities, and
the quality of its leadership, audits, internal controls and shareholder rights.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
