That’s because the public are demanding it and in the increasingly competitive asset management business fund managers can’t afford to ignore the voices of activists like Stockholm’s 16-year-old Greta Thunberg. Her voice, and the voices of like-minded retail investors are now reaching into the snowy wilds of Siberia and changing the way businesses around the world are being run. Investors no long just demand a decent return on their money, they are demanding sustainable investments too. Petrochemicals Biodegradable Film BOPP
