SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The treasury industry recognized ICD, an independent portal provider of money market funds and other short-term investments, with a TMI magazine Treasury4Good 2020 award for Best CSR/ESG Thought Leadership Campaign. ICD’s award-winning campaign brought together pioneering ESG experts and fund managers in a series of webinars to educate treasury investment managers on ESG history, standards and criteria used by fund companies for short-term investments.
“ESG was a hot topic in 2020 before the pandemic hit, and we believe interest will continue as the world marches toward recovery,” says ICD Chief Marketing Officer Justin Brimfield. “The COVID-19 crisis has focused the world on the importance of environment, social responsibility and governance, and we don’t see companies letting up on their interest in investing in ESG products in the short-term investments space.” ICD canvassed treasury professionals at the beginning and at the end of 2020 and found interest remained constant with 32% of survey respondents saying that they foresee their organizations investing in ESG products in the next 12 months.
“The judges were particularly impressed with how ICD has gone further than its leading-edge technology offering to provide support to the wider treasury community through its regular insights and thought leadership,” says Robin Page, publisher of TMI.
The four-part ICD Insight 2020 webinar series, “ESG For Short Term Investing,” comprised the following:
