Private equity shifts ESG strategy amid political backlash
Original: PE pivots on ESG amid hostile environment
Private equity firms are adjusting their approach to environmental, social and governance commitments as the political and regulatory climate around ESG grows increasingly hostile, particularly in the United States. Industry observers note firms are softening public ESG language while quietly maintaining many sustainability practices to balance investor demands with mounting anti-ESG pressure from politicians and parts of the public.
Why now: Rising anti-ESG political pressure is forcing private equity firms to rethink how they frame their sustainability commitments.
