Fedgroup CEO Grant Field discusses the importance of ESG investing

In this What’s Next interview, Fedgroup CEO Grant Field meets with Aki Anastasiou to discuss how sustainability trends can positively impact the investment landscape. Field holds a BSc in Engineering from the University of Witwatersrand and an MBA from the University of Pretoria. He has worked at Fedgroup since 2002, where he initially used his tech expertise to help set up its IT department. In his interview, Field talks about the growing trend of ESG investing and why investors should pay attention to it. He highlights the opportunities in sustainable investing and talks about whether investors really care about saving the world or if their sole concern is making money. Field then explains how Fedgroup’s investment approach differs from other financial services institutions. He discusses how the company began and how he has used Fedgroup’s Impact Farming investment product to bring new offerings to the market. Finally, Field highlights the risk-return trade-off in sustainable investing and explains how Fedgroup mitigates these risks.
