In this edition of Sustainability Matters, RBC Capital Markets Sustainable Finance Group highlights the three themes for the year ahead.
RBC Capital Markets’ Three ESG Themes for 2021
Companies Propelled into Action:
Global policy alignment and the expectation that the private sector play a role in addressing climate change and inequality will see a shift from investors driving the ESG agenda to the private sector leading the charge
The Rise of ESG Targets:
Ambitious, time-bound ESG targets will become the norm in 2021, helping fuel the demand and growth in sustainable finance products such as Sustainability-Linked Loans and Bonds
Sustainability Reporting Gets Rigorous:
Collaboration among sustainability standard setters will create standardization and rigor in ESG reporting, resulting in the continued growth and adoption of climate-risk reporting
