From the coining of the term "ESG" in an IFC report in
2005, the integration of Environmental, Social and Governance
factors into financial investing has gone from strength to
strength. In 2014 the United Nations identified 17 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) with the intention of eradicating the most
pressing global problems by the year 2030, and 2016 saw the

emissions) to the Paris Agreement.
