At Invesco, flexibility is key – and our broad range of capabilities allows investors to switch their preferences as markets evolve.   

In this paper:

  • The Invesco Fixed Income Global Debt Team presents its expertise and differentiated approach to environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing.

  • We highlight the key advantages of incorporating forward-looking sustainability momentum and sustainability potential indicators into emerging markets (EM) sovereign fixed income investing.

  • In a case study, we assess signals of potential risk in sovereign EM. 

  • And finally, we outline the importance of engagement with sovereigns as a critical component of ESG integration.
