Social investing amid runaway inflation

  • 27 October 2022 (5 min read)

Post-pandemic, against a backdrop of rising inflation, the ‘S’ of environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing is attracting ever-greater levels of scrutiny.

Investors want to know how their money can be directed towards positive social outcomes; and there are opportunities for investors to potentially help address social inequalities via dedicated impact investment strategies.
