Sustainable Investing Video Series

Our Sustainable Investing video series introduces the concepts and best practices of sustainable investing to trustees, staff, and other investors. Over the past two decades, investor interest and demand for purpose-driven investment opportunities — including various movements such as socially responsible investing, ESG integration, and impact investing — has grown significantly, and Marquette now advises on over $81 billion invested¹ with some form of sustainable approach. The three videos in this overview are presented by Linsey Schoemehl Payne, who serves as vice-chair of Marquette’s Sustainable Investing Group and works with clients directly to implement and monitor sustainable investing programs.

The series covers:

  • Tackling Terminology, an introduction to the terms and concepts investors may encounter when thinking about sustainable investing;
  • Initiating Implementation, an overview of the process of implementing a sustainable investment program; and
  • Compliance & Reporting, a summary of the various methods used to evaluate manager compliance and report on the impact of sustainable investments.

2020 Market Preview Video

This video coincides with our annual Market Preview newsletters and includes a recap of 2019’s performance and what investors can expect heading into 2020. 2019 was certainly a profitable year for investors as traditional and alternative asset classes delivered positive returns. As we enter 2020, there are a litany of questions facing global markets ranging from the U.S. election to trade disputes to global monetary policy, all of which will undoubtedly influence investment returns.

This video is part of our Market Insights series, a quarterly presentation designed to brief clients on the market as soon as possible after quarterly market data becomes available. Members of our research team discuss the overall U.S. economy, along with fixed income, U.S. and non-U.S. equity, hedge funds, private equity, real estate, and infrastructure.
