ESG in Fixed Income

We believe that investment teams should consider information on the sustainability of their investment options in order to meet the standards of good corporate citizenship. Therefore, Fiera Capital has designed a framework for the consistent evaluation of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors in corporate and municipal credit.
