The Latin American region is facing considerable environmental, social and governance (ESG) challenges, but each challenge presents an opportunity to strengthen economic performance across industries and nations. Regional ESG investors must contend with an incredibly diverse landscape, and should understand the interplay between firms, their customers, their supply chain and their place in the larger economic ecosystem. In this episode of Market Points, Francisco Suarez, Director, Global Equity Research at Scotiabank Mexico, discusses the region’s ESG evolution. Francisco covers ESG for Latin America and is also a member of Mexico’s multi-disciplinary working group for the country’s 2030 climate agenda.
