"Over the past 12 months, we have carried out a significant amount of bottom-up ESG stock analysis, especially on the environmental and social impact of the products and services that the companies under our coverage produce," said analyst Georgina Webb in the note. Only companies that have showed excellence in "managing the safety of employees, executive pay, withdrawing dividends, furloughing workers and supply-chain practices ie that those companies that have superior supply chain practices, employee satisfaction and brand reputation management are in a better position to navigate difficult times", have made it into their ESG picks, of which 10 are listed in London. Rather than just emphasising the environmental element of the acronym, the analysts have picked 17 stocks they believe "have a positive impact on the world", including examining the reactions of companies to the coronavirus pandemic. Companies ranging from fuel cell maker Ceres Power Holdings PLC ( LON:CWR) as well as others such as a meat producer, supermarket, gym chain and building materials supplier have all been picked by analysts at Berenberg as their ESG "top picks".
