At least 40 UCITS ETFs exposed to Uyghur repression.
“A minimum of 40 European-listed equity ETFs, including ESG and SRI products from BlackRock, Amundi, BNP Paribas Asset Management, Vanguard and DWS, are exposed to Uyghur imprisonment and forced labour, research from ETF Stream has found.”
[COMMENTARY] There are probably numerous ESG funds in the US, Canada, and other countries that are likely having the same issue. Also, as you may know, the new EU ESG fund regulations are requiring many hitherto labeled ESG funds to change their ‘labels’ and marketing presentations! Increasingly, ESG fund greenwashing is gaining attention.
