Dear John,
The Fraser Institute published two new essays today as part of a series on the myths and realities of the ESG movement.
The first essay – It’s Time to Move on from ESG – finds that imposing top-down ESG mandates will cause substantial harm to the economy and workers.
The second essay – Putting Economics Back into ESG – finds public policy objectives, such as those addressed by ESG initiatives, should be decided by and acted on by democratically elected governments, not private sector actors.
Investor support for ESG is starting to wane, which isn’t surprising as the considerable harms ESG mandates pose come to light.
Read both essays here, and be sure to share them with your friends and colleagues.
Sincerely,
Niels Veldhuis
President
The Fraser Institute
