ESG integration is about understanding the material factors that are important to a company, as it helps create a clearer picture to better understand the potential impacts to long term value. A few examples of ESG factors include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Environmental concerns<\/strong>: Climate change, natural resources conservation, pollution and waste management, and water scarcity<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Social issues&nbsp;<\/strong>: Data privacy and security, community and government relations, workplace health and safety, human rights and diversity<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Governance topics<\/strong>: Accounting practices, board accountability and structure, disclosure practices, executive compensation, corporate ethics, regulatory compliance and transparency<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-esg-screening-and-exclusion\">ESG screening and exclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as investing in line with values or values alignment, this approach applies positive or negative screens to include or exclude assets from the investment universe. ESG exclusions and screening can also include socially responsible investing (SRI) inclusions and exclusions, norms-based investing (based on compliance with international norms), best-in-class (based on positive performance) and seeking leaders\u2019 (poised for long-term growth) strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading h4 mb-1-half\" id=\"h-negative-screening\">Negative screening<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large mb-2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/06\/negative-screening.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading h4 mb-1-half\" id=\"h-positive-screening\">Positive screening<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large mb-2\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rbcwealthmanagement.com\/en-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/06\/positive-screening.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-thematic-esg-investing\">Thematic ESG investing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This approach identifies a social or environmental impact or theme that the portfolio wants to measure and report progress in alongside risk and return. With thematic investing, there is an intentional allocation of capital to a specific investment theme (e.g. climate change, gender equity, sustainability-related categories).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is significant investment into technologies that alleviate the threats to sustainability.
