ESG investing faces challenges as nations redefine sustainability, including defence spending, amid transparency gaps and conflicting standards.
Responsible investing, projected to reach $40 trillion globally by 2030, faces growing challenges due to inconsistent ESG standards, weak transparency, and conflicting priorities.
The war in Ukraine has prompted countries like Germany and Sweden to reclassify defence spending as sustainable, while the EU’s ReArm Europe plan proposes €800 billion in defence investment.
However, the EU has not confirmed whether such spending aligns with its sustainable finance criteria.
Projects like large dams may meet environmental goals but harm communities, and many funds lack clear disclosures on defence or dual-use technologies.
Investors are urged to demand greater transparency amid evolving global risks and shifting definitions of sustainability.
