On May 3, 2018 UN Environment Program (UNEP) announced that the report “Investor Duties and ESG Integration in China” was published in March.
The report “is the joint work of the UN Environment Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI), The Generation Foundation, and the International Institute of Green Finance (IIGF). It is available in both English and Chinese.
‘This report outlines important recommendations for creating a more sustainable financial system in China,’ said Al Gore, former US Vice President and Chairman of Generation Investment Management. ‘As part of our Fiduciary Duty in the Twenty-first Century project, the work of the Generation Foundation, along with the PRI and UN Environment Finance Initiative, is helping investors everywhere consider what drives value in investment decision making, including important ESG considerations.’”
