Show Notes

For fixed income ESG investors, gaining a deeper understanding of emerging markets is crucial as standard ESG assessments may neglect the complex economic and social dynamics that influence positive ESG impact as well as investment risks and opportunities in these regions.

In this episode of Fixed on ESG, Nuvneet Dhillon, CFA, ESG Specialist, highlights our enhanced Sovereign ESG Impact Rating framework, and hosts Cathy Hepworth, CFA, Head of Emerging Markets Debt, and Magdalena Polan, Head of Emerging Market Macroeconomic Research, to discuss ESG for emerging market sovereigns and the challenges of assessing these credits.
