Financial Planner Life Podcast Jeremy Korn - on Impact & ESG Investing, why ethical investments are important & the changes to MiFID II for Financial Planners
On episode 13 of the financial planner life podcast wh Sam Oakes, I’m joined by jeremy Korn who is the CEO of Impact and Invest, a regulated Impact investment platform for financial planners and sophisticated investors.
There is approximately £17 billion invested in ethical funds in the UK. 78% of investors say ethical investing is more important to them now than it was five years ago, whilst almost two-thirds of people have increased their investment in sustainable funds over the past five years. Sustainable investments have also grown 107.4% annually since 2012 and they currently account for 18% of assets under management.
We discuss:
· the challenges financial planners face when searching for ethical / impact investment opportunities for their clients.
· What impact investing is, and the types of companies and investment opportunities that feature on the platform.
· How impact and invest can help financial planners build their knowledge and training around ethical investments.
· Greenwashing and the impact of MiFID II on ESG investing; are you ready?
