Richard Lawrence is the Executive Chairman of Overlook
Investments, a leading value-oriented investment firm in Asia that
he founded in 1991. Richard was an early guest on the show telling
Overlook’s story, and that conversation follows in the feed.
Over the years, Richard grew passionate about the environment and
ESG principles, and quietly integrated them in Overlook’s research
process starting a decade ago. Our conversation covers the ESG
integration lens at Overlook. We discuss stories of early
governance challenges in Asia and the development of modern finance
technology, social issues related to the quality of businesses, and
environmental considerations of excluding industries, reporting
challenges, principles, and tradeoffs. We close with Richard’s
philanthropic work on climate change and in the closing questions,
his take on US-China relations.
