Sustainable investing perspectives
This past year was marked by significant global events, with nearly half the world's population voting and expressing dissatisfaction with incumbents in the US, UK, EU, and other regions. Geopolitical tensions rose, notably in the South China Sea and the Middle East, and with Iran. Amid these challenges, central banks began cutting rates, and the S&P 500 hit new highs.
