近年來,在氣候變暖、疫情衝擊等各種極端事件驅動下,全民密切關注可持續發展相關問題;與此同時,ESG投資理念應運而生並蓬勃發展。不過,壓軸的「G」在該策略中的定位是什麼?「G」對於實踐ESG投資理念有何重要性?我們一起來看看。
企業管治(G)關注公司內部治理情況,即公司通過一套制度或機制,來協調公司與所有利益相關者之間的利益關係,以保證公司決策的邏輯性,最終維護公司各方面利益。這些制度或機制包括:公司內部的貪污受賄處理、反不正當競爭、風險與危機管理、稅收策略標準、公平的勞動實踐、商業行為準則等。
良好的企業管治(G)是ESG投資框架中最為重要的基礎性因素,因為公司對環境(E)和社會(S)可持續發展的實踐和貢獻需要以公司自身可持續發展為前提。如果公司能夠將環境和社會視為利益相關者,並結合合理的企業管治制度協調,則可以最大程度實現環境、社會與企業自身的可持續發展。
事實上,在三個ESG因素裡,企業管治對於企業的業績有著最直接的影響,主要通過防止管理階層薪酬過高、避免法律訴訟,以及向股東支付合理回報等措施為股東提供良好的回報。亞洲公司治理協會秘書長艾哲明(Jamie Allen)表示,當前亞洲市場企業管治機制仍未形成體系,而只有解決這個問題,才能為亞洲在ESG和可持續發展上提供有效的治理基礎。目前,亞洲各地政府以及企業正在採取措施完善企業管治機制,如中國在2020年推出新一輪退市制度改革政策,可望改善中國上市公司治理能力,進而降低風險以提高股東收益。可見,在提升企業管治水準過程中潛藏諸多投資機會,亞洲ESG投資值得期待。
Better income – Aim for higher, not the highest
If we focus too much on chasing the highest yield and upfront yield generation, we could suffer from early capital depletion and miss the total return opportunity towards the later stages of the investment journey.
Cash is king?
Amid volatile market conditions and higher interest rates, seeking security by burying your savings in a deposit account is tempting. As the saying goes, “cash is king”. Or is it?
Better Income
A “Better Income” approach seeks to understand an investor’s investment objective alongside the underlying risk of certain levels of income generation. “Better” income may not refer to the highest income level but the stability and consistency of reasonably higher yields generated throughout various market cycles.
