From community lending to decarbonized investments, B Corps play an increasingly large role in creating an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy. The state of ESG investing, however, is vulnerable and B Corps are uniquely positioned to redirect the flow of investment to counter recent trends. Together with our partners, we will highlight the vulnerabilities and long-term risks created by divestment in the short run and discuss approaches for remaining steadfast in your commitments to use environmental, social, and governance factors in portfolio valuations and growth strategies.
