DOL and ESG Investing: Evolving Guidance
Groom Law Group Link to more items from this source
[Guidance Overview]

Instead, FAB 2018-01 states that fiduciaries must 'not too readily treat ESG factors as economically relevant.' ... DOL hypothesizes that plan participants could have competing views on Collateral Benefits and that a fiduciary could thus violate his or her duty of loyalty by favoring some participants' views over others."
