President Biden's proposed climate change and industrial policies have far reaching implications across sectors including power, transport, real estate and agriculture. The changes could create significant investment opportunities as capital is reallocated to industry transitions backed by policy support and technology breakthroughs. These policies will likely accelerate the transformative changes ESG investing has on the investment industry and the companies in which they invest. Facts: Globally, ESG exchange traded funds (ETF) experienced 223% growth in 2020, with a new record of $189 billion in total assets under management, according to TrackInsight. Five of the top 10 best performing non-leveraged ETFs globally followed an ESG approach. It's likely we are in the early innings of the ESG movement as asset allocators and platforms for advisory channels continue to drive huge flows into these ESG products.
