Abstract

In recent years, ESG investment is increasing worldwide, and awareness of ESG risks such as environment, society, and governance is increasing, and non-financial investments are considered when making investment decisions. With the recent Corvid 19 crisis, the focus is on the environment, and investments related to bio and health are gaining popularity, while new investments are completely suspended in coal-related businesses, and decisions are made in the direction of sequential termination or withdrawal of existing businesses This has resulted in an increasing number of managers setting climate change and sustainability as top priorities in their investment portfolios. As a result, it is necessary to present effective countermeasures to changes in the investment environment, and to make efforts to respond and prepare an investment system that can help build a risk management system. Therefore, I would like to briefly review the ESG investment trends and present implications considering shared growth and mutual benefit.

최근 ESG 투자는 전세계적으로 증가하고 있으며, 환경, 사회, 지배구조 등 ESG 위험성에 대한 인식이 높아지고 투자 결정시 이와 같은 비재무적 투자를 고려하는 추세이다. 최근 코로나19 사태를 겪으면서 환경에 초점이 맞추어지며 바이오와 헬스 관련 투자가 인기를 얻고 있는 반면 석탄 관련 사업 분야에서는 신규투자가 전면 중단되고 기존 사업은 순차적으로 사업을 종료하거나 철수하는 방향으로 의사결정이 이루어져 기후변화와 지속가능성을 투자 포트폴리오 최우선 순위로 설정하는 운용사가 증가하고 있다. 그 결과 투자환경 변화에 대한 효과적인 대응 방안을 제시하고, 리스크 관리체계의 구축에 도움이 될 수 있는 투자체계의 대응 및 준비에 노력을 기울일 필요가 있다. 따라서 동반성장과 호혜를 고려한 ESG 투자 동향을 간략히 살펴보고 시사점을 제시하고자 한다.
