IBD: Passive Index Funds Pushed To Be More Active Voice For ESG

FYI: Until recently, socially responsible investing has been a backwater in the investing world. But investors — particularly activist groups — now demand more environmental, social and governance (ESG) responsibility from corporations.

According to a survey by Brown Brothers Harriman and ETF.com, 51% of investors say ESG carries some level of importance, up 14 percentage points from last year. There are 169 ESG mutual funds and 56 ESG ETFs, according to Morningstar.
