With ESG metrics in increasing supply, it is becoming possible for investment firms to tailor its sustainability strategy to be unique for itself – making a greater impact on chosen sustainable development goals. Northern Trust’s Benjamin Versluijs introduced the idea in Wednesday’s PostTrade 360° Amsterdam conference. 

[This is an update, now with the video, of the original news post from the conference day, 28 October.]

Benjamin Versluijs acknowledged that the finance industry, including post trade, is not yet particularly advanced in terms of diversity. 

“But if we can all start working towards it, we could make the world a little bit better.”
