Following a spike in request for ESG support from firms backed by private equity, together with Eliza Erskine of Green Buoy Consulting, we set out to interview a number of private equity professionals to learn more about how they deal with ESG.
Our main findings, based on our conversations with seven private equity firms representing over $400bn in capital raised, are captured in this short write-up.
Key takeaways include:
ESG execution varies widely across firms
LP requests remain a top driver
ESG maturity spans from compliance-focused to value-creating models
Firms anticipate sustained demand for shared tools, metrics, and cross-industry learning
