Summary

As ESG factors help contribute to—or detract from—security returns, it makes sense for active investors to integrate them into security selection.
Factor attribution using historical returns can reveal how ESG factors have contributed to investment returns in the past, whether for a sector or an entire investment universe, in equities or in bonds.
Understanding the effect of ESG factors on performance is most valuable in the context of broader research into how well a company is managed.
