46. Where do you stand on ethical or ESG investing? feat. Nick Nicolaides from Pearler

Ethical investing, or ESG investing (Environmental, Social, and Governance) has attracted a lot of attention over the past decade. However, not everyone agrees on whether it’s a worthwhile investing channel.Some investors argue it provides a much-needed chance to do some good whilst potentially earning a return. Others claim it’s a milquetoast asset class that will never be able to compete with traditional investments. There are also people who express concern over whether ESG investments actually perform as advertised, or whether they’re simply greenwashing.In this episode, Natasha Etschmann (Tash Invests) and Ana Kresina (Head of Product & Community at Pearler) welcome back Nick Nicolaides, Pearler’s CEO and co-founder, to explore this very topic. To this end, they assess the Pearler community’s ESG investing habits, and detail their most popular ESG ETFs.
