Green is the New Black: Sustainability, Growth and Risk in the Apparel Retail Industry
 | Green is the New Black: Sustainability, Growth and Risk in the Apparel Retail Industry

MSCI cordially invites you to a webinar where we will provide an introduction to the sustainability in the Apparel Retail Industry.
As investors try to pick the winning retailer of the 2010 holiday season they will notice a subtle transformation gripping the sector: the modern consumer is not only cost-sensitive, but is also environmentally and socially conscious. The company which wins this consumer not only takes advantage of a globalized supply chain to lower costs but must also act as a responsible steward of the environment and society. In short, sustainability is not just a trivial PR exercise in this industry it is a critical new driver of cost competitiveness, risk, and growth. As retailers struggle to balance cost-competitiveness with responsible stewardship a new generation of leaders and laggards is beginning to emerge.
Please join senior analyst Olga Emilianova as she uncovers the leaders and laggards in a rapidly evolving retail industry.
