Although the crisis situation in our environment is evident, crises in themselves are not necessarily negative. They represent a rupture of equilibrium and of the usual order; they are a period of transformation, a climate of excitement and nervous tension, but they will be positive or negative, depending on how we situate ourselves in and before them. Placing ourselves in a positive way, they can have effects of growth and overcoming.
In this meeting we will discuss sustainability as a characteristic of development that ensures the needs of the present without compromising the needs of future generations, and also the principles of responsible investment as a strategy and practice that incorporates environmental, social and governance factors into investment decisions and asset management, according to the practical recommendations of the United Nations and the Oeconomica et Pecuniariae Quaestiones published by the Dicastery for the Service of Human Development.
