TL,DR: ESG designations are labels meant to indicate ethical products
ESG | Organic, Non-GMO, Ethically Sourced
Like organic, non-gmo, and ethically sourced marketing labels, ESG labels are applied when a company allegedly meets regulatory standards
Can be related to the product itself, or associated impacts from the product
Eatamology “ESG” stands for environmental, social, and governance. It’s a broad and sometimes subjective label that attracts investors concerned about outcomes and ethics in addition to profits.
Financials You might be thinking that ESG seems up for interpretation. It is. Just like buying a box of candy that reads “gluten-free”, that label does not indicate the product is healthy. ESG labels signal some ethical standards have been met, but do not guarantee that every aspect of a product can be trusted. In addition, ESG can refer to both the product being delivered and the company’s practice in creating the product. This means a product delivering solar panels but treating their employees poorly might be considered environmentally friendly but lacking strong corporate governance.
Environmental Friendly / Non GMO
Products that exceed industry standards related to pollution, carbon emissions, recycling, and preservation
Socially Responsible / Ethically Sourced
Products that exceed industry standards related to social issues and social progress such as promoting social justice or avoiding addictive or malicious products
Corporate Governance Best Practices / Organic
Products that exceed industry standards related to fair and safe practices in the workplace
Where to Find Individual stock and bond products, as well as stock and bond ETFs and Mutual Funds can be labeled with the ESG designation
