class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">The fact that hundreds of ESG funds are still exposed to Adani Green is “surprising”, according to Mohit Mirpuri, a portfolio manager at SGMC Capital, who says he sold his exposure to the company’s bonds in late 2022, due to concerns the company was relying too much on leverage. </p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">“There’s no case to be made to hold shares right now,” and the continued presence of ESG funds in the company “calls into question” their ability to properly screen for governance risks, he said.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Investors who have long avoided ESG are using this as a moment to rip into the industry’s apparent failings.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Barry Norris, founder and chief investment officer of UK hedge fund Argonaut Capital Partners, said the Adani Green example shows that the ESG movement is perfectly capable of housing “malfeasance, chicanery and skullduggery,” and doing so “under the cloak of morality”.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Index providers also have faced some heat over their approach to due diligence when handing out the ESG ratings that determine how readily a company is included in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and other passive strategies. There are about 70 ETFs tracking ESG benchmarks that hold Adani Green, Bloomberg data show.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">In its complaint, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said Adani Green used its “A” rating from the ESG research unit of MSCI to attract investors to a 2021 bond sale. </p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">MSCI downgraded Adani Green to “BBB” in July 2023, about six months after the Hindenburg report. The firm is now “closely reviewing” the latest developments in the Adani case, a spokesperson told Bloomberg. MSCI flags business ethics and fraud allegations, including bribery, the spokesperson said.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Morningstar Sustainalytics gives Adani Green a risk score of 14.3 on a scale of zero to 100, where 100 is the worst rating. It also assigns the company a so-called risk category of “low”. </p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">The rating “is primarily driven by the company’s negligible risks related to material environmental and social issues, including human capital, occupational health and safety, land use and biodiversity, as well as product governance,” Hortense Bioy, global head of sustainability research at Morningstar Sustainalytics, said in an e-mail response. </p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Bioy also noted that the company has been assigned a “medium” risk score for its corporate governance, which accounts for 31 per cent of the overall ESG issues deemed “material for the company”, she said. And Adani Green has “been flagged as having a significant level of controversy, with a weak business ethics program and a weak political involvement policy”.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">The company now faces “increasing financial, regulatory, and reputational risks stemming from new evidence and investigations into its allegedly fraudulent business practices,” Bioy said, and Morningstar Sustainalytics’ analysis “will be reviewed in light of recent events.”</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Adani Green has been at the heart of India’s shift to renewable energy, with the company’s target of producing 50 gigawatts of renewable energy by 2030, equivalent to roughly 10 per cent of India’s goals. And Gautam Adani, Asia’s second-richest man, is a close ally of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a relationship that has benefited his sprawling business empire.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">Most investors expect weaker governance or legal structures when it comes to emerging markets, and India ranks 93 out of 180 countries in the Corruption Perceptions Index of Transparency International. But Adani Green has “positioned itself as a leader in environmentally conscious, socially responsible, and good corporate governance principles,” the SEC said.</p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">“The dichotomy of ESG is that many investors chose to ignore” the red flags surrounding Adani Green because it was operating in the sustainable sector, Snowcap’s Kinnersley said. </p><p class="mb-4 md:mb-6 leading-8 -tracking-5%" data-story-element="paragraph" data-testid="paragraph-component">The US indictment “dispels the notion that governance can be assessed relative to local norms in a foreign market,” he said. “Any company raising capital from US investors should clearly expect to be held to US standards.” BLOOMBERG</p></div><div class="mb-6 border-t border-gray-175"><section class="mx-auto my-4 w-full" data-testid="article-purchase-link-component"><section class="mx-auto flex w-full
