Many of our clients are asset owners, including sovereign wealth funds and pension funds, who are seeking to invest for the long-term future of their beneficiaries. At Neuberger Berman, our ESG Advisory Council aims to provide guidance on the future of impact investing and sustainability topics, drawing on the latest knowledge from academia, the non-profit sector and institutional asset owners. What does it mean to apply a long-term mindset to investing? And how can it relate to managing volatility, time horizons for measuring performance, and the integration of ESG considerations into investment processes? On this episode of Disruptive Forces, host Anu Rajakumar passes the mic to Jonathan Bailey, Head of ESG Investing, and Theresa Whitmarsh, former CEO of the Washington State Investment Board and a member of our ESG Advisory Council, to discuss their views on the importance of investing with a long-term mindset.
