Sustainable Investing: The Art of Long-Term Performance


Evolving out of the ethical, socially responsible investment (SRI) and
responsible investment waves, sustainable investment involves the conscious
integration of environmental, social and governance factors into strategies
for generating long-term financial returns. Billions of dollars, pounds,
euro, and yen are being managed with a view toward these factors, and both
the current worldwide financial crisis and the specter of global warming
further highlight the imperative for patterns of finance and investment that
are truly oriented toward long-term value creation, rather than a short-term
focus that has arguably led to recent breakdowns in the capital markets. 

Sustainable Investing: The Art of Long-Term Performance is a new book
written by international leaders in the field that thoroughly explains
sustainable investment (history, evolution and mainstreaming); how to select
sustainable companies and investments (screening criteria, indices, and
indicators); the changing corporate landscape towards corporate social
responsibility (CSR) and environmental sustainability; investment analysis
and performance, and changes in capital markets.

Join Sustainable Investing co-editor/author Cary Krosinsky and chapter
contributor Stephen Viederman as they discuss their conclusion that the best
way to generate risk-adjusted returns in the 21st century is to fully
incorporate long-term environmental, social, and economic trends into
investment and ownership decision-making. Whether motivated by personal
values or by the quest for superior returns, investors can explore risk
mitigation and upside opportunities by leading the front-end of the
sustainability curve.
