What is ESG and why do we care?
Janus Henderson understands that Responsible Investing and use of terminology like “ESG” continues to evolve and mature. Our focus on ESG integration includes the analysis and incorporation of financially material ESG issues in the investment process, just like other financially material factors. We believe this incremental lens of risk/return analysis can make us better investors on behalf of our clients.
