This course will review modern investing products, and how ESG (environmental, social, and governance) factors are measured and integrated into investment strategies.
We will also consider scholarly research on ESG factors, such as Caroline Flammer’s recent study of long-term management incentives and Robert Litterman’s work on climate risk. In addition, the course will cover commercial ESG products, including the MSCI IVA rating system and Société Générale’s CEO-focused ESG alpha strategy.
The course will consist of lectures, class discussions, and a team project. Project teams will evaluate responsible investment products from all over the world and share their findings.
