Swiss bank UBS has linked with Harvard University and the City University of New York on a 2 year research program to build a framework that measures the impact of global equities on climate change, water, food security and health. This research aims to create a landmark tool for the global pension fund industry to help them buy or sell shares in listed companies based on their environmental and social impact, hence their sustainability. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/business/markets/ubs-links-with-harvard-on-esg-tool-for-pension-funds/news-story/c6e9d27a67d515576f7cc01ca41c07f4
