New York: At Goldman Sachs Group Inc there’s an environmental, social and governance (ESG) filter that tells investors to buy coal giant Glencore Plc, and avoid Big Tech staples Microsoft Corp and Alphabet Inc.
The filter is designed to pick stocks based on how much attention companies pay to recycling, waste management and the re-use of materials and products. The better they do, the higher they score on a metric called circularity.
