Responsible Investing (RI) will become mainstream by 2015, accounting for 15-20pc of total global assets under management, according to a report from asset manager Robeco and management consultancy firm, Booz & Co. Growth in RI is expected to reach 25pc per annum over the next few years, with Europe - particularly Switzerland - leading the way. The retail share of the market will rise, but remain below that accounted for by the institutional RI share. Against this backdrop, RI funds will become a major source of revenue for asset managers, overtaking mandates, which are currently the dominant product. Image source: professionaladviser.co.uk
