Schroders is proud to announce its support for Incisive Media's inaugural Sustainable Investment Festival in June 2021, with the firm set to take a leading role engaging with the audiences of Investment Week, Professional Adviser and Professional Pensions.

As the multi-channel sponsor, Schroders will be running interactive sessions, roundtables and interviews throughout the Festival which will take place 22-25 June. Schroders will also have a team of sustainable investment experts on hand to answer questions and share insights.

Schroders is closely collaborating with the organisers of Sustainable Investment Festival to tailor the programme to meet the sustainable investment needs of fund selectors, financial advisers, pension consultants, trustees and scheme managers.

James Rainbow, Head of UK Distribution and Latin America at Schroders, said:

'Over the past 12 months we honoured our pledge to integrate sustainability measurements across our investment processes and went further, building tools to assess the impact, both positive and negative of the companies in which we invest on behalf of our clients.

'2021 is an exciting year for further growth and development, as such we are pleased to support Incisive Media's first Sustainable Festival to facilitate the exchange of ESG best practice and meaningful engagement with the industry on a broad range of Sustainability related issues.'

During this interactive event, Schroders keynote speakers, presenters and panellists will be tackling the big debates shaping the future of sustainable investing, identifying opportunities across asset classes, as well as offering guidance on the fast-changing regulatory environment and best practice when integrating ESG into business processes.
