Seb Beloe, WHEB: How to have impact in listed equity markets

This week is the final episode in this series of conversations that explores impact investing in listed equities. Impact investing has a long history in private markets, but when it comes to investing in public companies that are listed on a stock exchange, it’s a lot harder, to measure your impact, and to influence the companies you’re investing in. Seb Beloe was an early guest of the show, and he’s back to tell us more about his fund, which is called the WHEB Sustainable Impact Fund. He’s head of Research at WHEB Asset management, and he’s a deep thinker about companies and their impact on the world. We go beyond talking about metrics and frameworks, to explore the nature of the companies that are leaders in the space. And, when it came to the prickly issue of additionality, the discussion went deep, Seb has some very clear views on the issue. And, I’d like to introduce you to the sponsor of this series and that’s, the ACCR, the Australasian Centre for Corporate Responsibility. The ACCR engages with companies as a shareholder, advocating for them to improve their environmental and social practices, and in the process make the company more sustainable.
