Robeco contributes to Eurosif's Emerging Markets Report
The European Sustainable Investment Forum (Eurosif), a pan-European network and think-tank whose mission is to Develop Sustainability through European Financial Markets, has published its Emerging Markets Sector Report.
The report discusses Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) integration and reporting by companies operating in emerging markets, and the increasingly significant role that these economies play, due to their rapid economic growth and their large populations.
The report shows that companies operating in emerging markets are progressively catching up with their developed market peers in terms of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) transparency and performance, despite significant country variations.
The research was provided by sustainability rating agency and researcher Inrate. Robeco provided input as part of the Emerging Markets Theme Report Steering Committee.
