On January 25th Sustainalytics published 10 for 2017: Investment themes in a changing world, the fourth installment in our 10 for series. As the title suggests, the report looks at thematic ESG investing.

At any rate, I ask myself how we were able to create a company that has built responsible investing into its very DNA.
