At Rockefeller Asset Management, ESG-integrated research emphasizing improvers, coupled with in-depth shareholder engagement, is important to our philosophy of delivering alpha and client outcomes.
While we labeled 2022 “the Blip,” driven by a turbulent year in the equity and bond markets, geopolitical conflict, rising inflation, central bank tightening, compounded by negative ESG sentiment, increased regulatory scrutiny, and mixed returns, 2023 has been named “the Divergence” – a year marked by a widening gap between the Magnificent Seven and the rest of the market; divisions within domestic and global and politics; and divergence between European and U.S. sustainable investing flows.
