Sustainable investing has gone from niche to necessary. But where is it headed next? In this episode, Ignacio sits down with Marina Severinovsky, Head of Sustainability for North America at Schroders, to unpack the shifting ESG landscape.
Marina draws from two decades of experience in finance and sustainability to explain how investors can navigate today’s volatile mix of climate risk, political backlash, and growing demand for impact.
Topics we cover:
🌍 Why sustainable investing isn’t just about values—it’s about identifying long-term risk and opportunity
💼 How institutional investors are redefining ESG integration across asset classes
💣 The rise (and fallout) of ESG backlash—and why Marina sees it as a “necessary reset”
📊 The trouble with ESG ratings and how Schroders builds proprietary sustainability models
👩💼 Women in sustainable finance, and Marina’s unfiltered advice for building a career in ESG
If you’re into impact investing, long-term market trends, and no-BS insights into how sustainability really works in finance, this one’s for you.
Oh, and if you haven't already… subscribe to The Blunt Dollar for more raw and honest finance conversations.
