Responsible Investment Strategy | ESG Product Development & Enhancement Passionate about responsible and sustainable investing, with a focus on responsible investment product strategy and climate initiatives at Desjardins. With a collaborative and result-oriented approach, I enjoy translating clients/markets' needs -alongside complex ESG themes- into coherent, well-positioned investment solutions across product lineups. Satisfied in building the clarity that brings people together, from developing long-term ESG product vision to creating tools and frameworks that simplify complex concepts, foster common understanding, and anchor decisions in real members and clients' needs. Experienced in enhancing collective efficiency across diverse projects by developing supporting tools and conceptual frameworks, from ESG data valorization and disclosure to strategic planning. Specialized in operationalizing cross-cutting ESG themes -particulary climate- across investment products and RI approaches to ensure their relevance to members and clients' preferences and alignment with industry frameworks. My experience in developing, implementing and assessing responsible investing product enhancements (exclusions, ESG integration, stewardship) in line with industry's best practices, and conducting ESG due diligence, enables me to exercise sound judgement on RI strategies, quickly grasp key issues and drive continuous improvement. Motivated to help organizations adapt to current and emerging challenges, and have a positive and sustainable real-world impact.
