ESG assets will exceed £36.5trn by 2025

ESG assets are forecast to exceed £36.5trn – over a third of projected global assets – by 2025, according to Bloomberg Intelligence1. The analysis comes as environmental, social and governance factors are becoming increasingly important to investors across the globe.

Adeline Diab, Head of ESG and Thematic Investing EMEA & APAC at Bloomberg Intelligence, said, “The pandemic and the global race to net zero carbon emissions have put ESG criteria into orbit – from niche to mainstream to mandatory.”
