On October 16, during the 2024 ESG Global Leaders Conference, Huang Danqi, head of ESG consulting and integration at Schroder Investments Asia Pacific, said in an interview that currently some industries that are difficult to reduce emissions have high capital requirements in the green transformation. Although some technologies can help cement, steel and other fields offset carbon emissions, the high cost makes them generally face challenges, and there is no mature technology to actually transform the high-emission industry to low-carbon. However, regulations in the ESG field are scattered at this stage, and regulatory standards vary from place to place around the world, making the phenomenon of differentiated statements more and more prominent. At the market level, how do international asset management institutions screen out the “greenwashing” behavior of enterprises? According to Huang Danqi, due to differences in disclosure standards in different markets, the data disclosed by some companies has not been understood or approved by investors. This is a challenge faced by ESG investment. It is recommended that enterprises follow the existing framework to disclose information at this stage.
