The Valuation of ESG: A Crucial Challenge for Investment Funds
In a rapidly evolving financial landscape, the valuation of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) criteria remains a strategic issue for private equity stakeholders. Despite ongoing efforts to refine their approaches, measuring the real impact of these criteria remains complex and often decisive.
A striking statistic shared by Henri-Pierre Jeancard, President of Aether Financial Services, during a roundtable discussion organized with ScaleX Invest by Early Metrics on November 28th, highlights this reality: “Half of the transactions where a substantial ESG issue emerged during due diligence do not reach completion.”
This discussion shed light on the challenges and opportunities tied to integrating ESG into investment strategies, offering rich and practical perspectives on a topic that is reshaping industry practices.
