Measuring Impact Down Under

MSCI ESG Research’s latest research paper, Impact Down Under looks at Australia’s sector and company revenue generation from products and services that may have a positive impact on society and the environment, while comparing MSCI World Australia Index constituents with MSCI World Index constituents.

We found Australian constituents of the MSCI World Index derived 4.9% of their revenue from involvement in UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related activities, compared to the MSCI World Index’s 6.2%, as of October 2016, with Green Building, Major Disease Treatments and Nutrition being the main areas of involvement.
