Hedge funds

Institutional investors are becoming increasingly interested in how hedge fund managers are applying environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into their portfolios.

The PRI has created various materials to help fund managers and asset owners incorporate responsible investment into hedge fund strategies, including a due diligence questionnaire, a technical guide to ESG incorporation in hedge funds and resources on short selling and responsible investment.
