TAKING ACTION: INSTITUTIONAL INVESTORS PROGRESS ON
THE PATH TO SUSTAINABILITY
Building on its three previous editions, BNP Paribas’ ESG Global Survey 2023 examines institutional investors’ progress on the path to sustainability. We have chosen to focus on how they are practically implementing their ESG strategies and the obstacles they are encountering along the way.
Our results are shared in three reports, focusing on ESG data and reporting, sustainable investing trends and the operating model required to support institutional investors on their sustainability journey.
We hope you find these reports an interesting and thought-provoking read.
