In this series, experts from the Duff & Phelps Institute and the Center for International Private Enterprise (CIPE) will look at the impact of the pandemic on the ESG investment climate and capital flows in emerging markets.

In the first event in this series, our experts will discuss the global impact and provide insights on the current market risks, ESG considerations for boards, ESG investments and the measurability of ESG efforts.
