Abstract: Abstract The integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) efforts in the investment strategies has sparked a lively debate among both investors and scholars. The chapter draws attention to this debate, better understanding if asset managers are open to integrate ESG factors into their SRI strategies and, at the same time, to communicate them to stakeholders. A content analysis of a sample of Candriam Key Investors Information Documents published in 2019 was performed. Results show that Candriam approached differently the ESG themes under investigation (Environment, Society, Governance, Labor, Compliance, and Performance).
