The BlackRock Announcement: A Long Time Coming

The announcement this week by Blackrock will be replicated over the entire financial services sector over the coming years. Those who adopt early will continue to have a serious advantage, so long as they can produce data for their clients showing how and where their money is having impact.

Stories are fine, but not nearly enough, as the SEC's investigation into ESG funds will no doubt determine.

As we like to say at iPAR:

Data without stories are soul-less, but
Stories without data are useless.

R. Todd Johnson*

  3. You got that right! Data without stories and stories without data is of no use. I have been working on compiling data for my data engineering assignments. This keeps me busy for the entire day and now I remember that my younger brother asked me to find the best MBA assignment writing service based for him. I have to compile some good brands so that, he can get his assignments done. I love my brother a lot and cannot deny him anything that he asks me.
