Responsible Investing
For wealth managers
Responsible investing goes by many names: environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing; socially responsible investing (SRI); or impact investing. But the main goal is the same: invest in companies that think long-term about their effects on the environment and society.
Parametric’s Responsible Investing solutions empower your clients to build a portfolio that aligns with their principles. You can combine these solutions with our full lineup of customization tools to create a holistic portfolio that addresses your clients’ financial and ESG goals.
Responsible investing in action
We believe responsible investing works best when it’s directed by you and your clients. We provide the building blocks to invest in companies that are consistent with your clients’ principles—but your clients decide how to construct those building blocks into portfolios.
Investors can use one or both of these approaches to build a responsible investing portfolio that can span both equities and fixed income:
ESG integration
You can include companies that meet your clients’ ESG criteria, or you can overweight companies that align well with their values while maintaining the risk profile of their desired exposure.
Active ownership
Working with Parametric, your clients have a hand in improving corporate behaviors through proxy voting and shareholder engagement.
