Ranks Companies: Esg and Companies

ranks companies: But they've often lagged the broader market, according to CTV. That's no longer the case. For years, there have been mutual funds and ETFs that focused on companies that score well on various environmental, social and governance metrics. ESG funds are on the rise as investors realize that companies have to do better -- particularly when it comes to the social aspect of ESG mandates during the Black Lives Matter movement. Index provider MSCI even ranks companies based on their ESG performance. For example, the iShares ESG MSCI USA, Vanguard ESG US Stock and Flex Shares STOXX US ESG impact ETFs are each up about 10 per cent over the past year, easily outperforming the Dow and S&P 500 over the same time frame.
