Abstract
We investigate how conventional asset man- agers account for environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors in their investment process. We do so on the basis of an international survey among fund managers. We find that many conventional managers integrate responsible investing in their investment process. Furthermore, we find that ESG information in particular is being used for red flagging and to manage risk. We find that many conven- tional fund managers have already adopted features of re- sponsible investing in the investment process. Furthermore, we argue and show that ESG investing is highly similar to fundamental investing. We also reveal that there is a sub- stantial difference in the ways in which U.S. and European asset managers view ESG.
