Never one to mince words, Aswath Damodaran (New York University Stern School of Business) called it “the most overhyped, oversold concept in the history of business.” That was back in 2020, and he was talking about environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors.

Find out at the ASA Spring Fair Value Conference in New York City on May 4 where he will do a session, ESG and Valuation—A Critical Perspective.
