The Economist Intelligence Unit has released a report titled "Sustainable and actionable: An ESG study of climate and social challenge for Asia," commissioned by Amundi. The report focuses on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing in fixed-income markets and examines the evolution of "green" debt from an issuer, investor, and regulatory perspective. The study is based on in-depth interviews with 14 executives at asset-owner firms, regulatory bodies, and finance professionals at academic or advisory organizations, alongside extensive desk research and historical analysis. The report's conclusions and implications are globally-minded, although it concentrates on stakeholders and market players in Asia. The report's author is Dewi John, and Jason Wincuinas is the editor. The report provides insights into the progress of the market and whether it has been enough in terms of the Paris Agreement.
