The survey also found that 74% of women were interested in increasing their share of ESG investments in their current portfolios and were significantly more likely than men to have an interest in learning more about ESG investing.<\/p>\n<p>While the survey revealed that women are leading the charge in ESG investing, more than half of male respondents (53%) also expressed interest in increasing the share of ESG in their current portfolio, and 61% of clients overall shared this position.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The results from this survey reinforce a belief we&#8217;ve had for several years: that responsible investing is poised to become a dominant strategy in the U.S. and that women are leading the adoption,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Kent McClanahan<\/span>, Vice-President, Responsible Investing at RBC Wealth Management \u2013 U.S. &#8220;As responsible investing continues to gain momentum, it is essential to have the right resources to help investors meet their standards in ESG investing and to learn more about the different elements that integrate ESG factors into an investment portfolio. Our advisors are ready to educate, counsel and guide clients to create impact with their investment strategies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Overall, about a third (31%) of RBC clients acknowledged the importance of integrating ESG factors into their investment decisions, with female clients rating all elements within the &#8220;E&#8221; for Environmental and &#8220;S&#8221; for Social categories in ESG significantly higher than male clients. The &#8220;G&#8221; for Governance was the one factor that showed no difference by gender and ranked the most important to clients across all ESG elements. Corporate ethics, regulatory compliance followed by transparency were the most important of governance elements for clients.<\/p>\n<p>The results of RBC&#8217;s survey support the growing industrywide enthusiasm for ESG investing. A new report from non-profit foundation US SIF: The Forum for Sustainable and Responsible Investment found that at the start of 2020, <span class=\"xn-money\">$17.1 trillion<\/span> was invested in responsibly invested assets in the U.S., up a staggering 42% from <span class=\"xn-money\">$12 trillion<\/span> just two years prior. ESG investing was among most popular responsible investing strategies, accounting for a third of all managed assets in the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>Among the other ESG factors, when it came to the &#8220;S&#8221; in Social, women ranked human rights at 80%, workplace health and safety at 75%, and social justice at 64% as the most important elements for them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While these issues likely have been important to women for some time, the growing interest in the &#8220;S&#8221; factor has no doubt also been impacted by the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/c212.net\/c\/link\/?t=0&amp;l=en&amp;o=3119254-1&amp;h=1029812603&amp;u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rbcwealthmanagement.com%2Fus%2Fen%2Fresearch-insights%2Fthe-rise-of-social-justice-investingand-how-to-get-started%2Fdetail%2F&amp;a=events+of+2020%2C\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">events of 2020,<\/a>\u00a0which put a spotlight on social justice and the effects of systemic racism,&#8221; McClanahan said.<\/p>\n<p>Men also thought these &#8220;S&#8221; elements were important but at lower levels of 62%, 67% and 44%, respectively. On the Environmental side, water scarcity and cleanliness, and pollution and waste management were the most important elements, particularly among female clients.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>Financial Advisors Top Source for Information, Education<br \/><\/b>RBC&#8217;s survey also revealed a vast majority of clients (86%) would turn to their financial advisors to find out more about ESG investing, signaling the need for advisors to be ready to guide current and future generations of investors on topics around responsible investing and how they can integrate different ESG considerations into an overall investment portfolio and long-term plan. Advisors have to also recognize that while many clients are interested in ESG investing, they don&#8217;t always know where to start in the learning process.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Advisors need to be prepared to engage in conversation and proactively approach the topic of responsible investing with clients, who are seeking their expertise and guidance as they navigate through new ESG investing opportunities,&#8221; McClanahan added. &#8220;Responsible investing is an area that will continue to grow as clients express greater interest.
