Divestment is different from ESG, which is different from impact investing. Negative screening – also known as divestment – is common for “sin sectors” like tobacco, weapons and (increasingly) fossil fuels. It launched in May 2022 but failed to attract investors and closed, or “de-listed,” in June 2023.
