Executive Summary
Summary:
Improving food security and nutrition and advancing the fulfillment of the right to adequate food in the context of national food security needs responsible investment in agricultural and food systems. The elimination of poverty, promotion of social and gender equality, eradication of the worst forms of child labor, encouragement of social participation and inclusiveness, stimulation of economic growth, and attainment of sustainable development are all made possible by responsible investment, especially for smallholders and members of marginalized and vulnerable groups.
It is more crucial than ever to discuss environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues in routine correspondence with institutional shareholders. Many investors are becoming more concerned with quantifying and reducing these risks for industries like food and agriculture with disproportionately large environmental and social challenges. For instance, State Street made public a requirement for disclosure from businesses in line with the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations, which includes reporting on board oversight of climate-related risks and opportunities, current emissions, and targets for emissions reduction. Similarly, BlackRock put REDACTED firms "on watch" in 2021 and voted against 69 companies and 64 directors due to environmental concerns. With asset growth in publicly available ESG funds rising from $REDACTED in 2020 to $REDACTED at the end of November 2021, ESG variables impact investor behavior.
