Original Date: November 09, 2020
In recent years, environmental, social and governance (ESG) themes have rapidly risen to prominence within equities and fixed income. In commodities however, this discussion is still in its infancy.In this session we'll explore using ESG data and to construct greenhouse gas (GHG) estimates for each metal that is a constituent of the Bloomberg Commodity Index (BCOM) benchmark. As an alternative to a carbon offset-based approach, we'll identify three possible routes by which commodities investors can control for the different aspects of ESG within their portfolios.
