Having more virtuous behavior than its competitors does not prevent success on the stock market, quite the contrary. La Financière de l'Échiquier, a French management company, has calculated that its virtual portfolio of the 40 best rated companies according to environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria fell "only" by 19% on the stock market in the first quarter . The shares of the 40 lowest-rated companies fell 27%. The world's leading management company, BlackRock, cites the Morningstar site study according to which "51 of its 57 sustainable indices outperformed the traditional benchmarks associated". Certainly, by company, being well rated in ESG is not a guarantee - CNP Assurances or PSA have suffered on the stock market since the beginning of the year. But on the whole, the rule holds true. Among the top-rated companies in France, there are L'Oréal, Schneider, Atos, Sanofi, which have held up well.
In reality, “outperformance”
