Regulatory Retreat or Market Reset? What's Next for Sustainable Investing

Dr. Julie Anderson, Director of the Master of Science in Sustainability Management at American University’s Kogod School of Business, joins this episode of Sustainable Intelligence to explore what the global rollback of sustainability regulations really means for investors. While recent policy shifts, from SEC revisions to the EU’s “stop the clock” directive, may appear to signal retreat, Julie argues they actually open the door to a more complex, opportunity-rich landscape. This episode frames today’s uncertainty as a strategic reset, not a regression. For investors and companies alike, now is the time to sharpen tools, rethink value creation, and build resilience for a future where sustainability is business as usual.
