The award-winning Adviser Hour returns next week with the fourth in the series focusing on ESG and Sustainable Investing in Alternatives – What you and your clients need to know will take place on Thursday 11th November at 10am.
ESG, Sustainable & Impact investing have now come into the mainstream and are quickly becoming a major element in investors’ investment choices. This momentum is carrying through to the tax efficient marketplace, and there are some newcomers and new offerings arriving to sit alongside the more established fund managers focused in this space. How does it apply to the tax efficient sector, from EIS to VCT, when many of the underlying investments are early-stage growth capital companies and how can advisers analyse tax efficient funds without a framework?
After the success of our first introductory episode in Q1, we explore the ways that advisers can access and categories ESG Investments, especially in the private markets and for tax efficient and unlisted equities Including:
- Discussion of 3rd party research and classifications around ESG
- Regulatory Requirements for advisers
- Existing Options in the Market
- How to present to clients
- How can ESG & Sustainable investing be introduced into a client’s portfolio, and how to incorporate suitability
- What are the options for sustainable investing in the tax efficient market?
- A look at the latest developments in ESG rating products and methods
