  • There's a course-correction underway among financial firms that went all out on ESG hiring just a few years back, according to recruiters advising banks and money managers.

The article from Bloomberg, published on April 29, 2025, discusses the phenomenon of "buyer's remorse" among finance bosses who overhired for Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) roles. Initially, there was a surge in demand for ESG expertise as companies sought to meet investor and regulatory expectations. However, as economic conditions shifted and the focus on ESG waned, many firms found themselves with an excess of specialized staff they no longer needed. This has led to layoffs and a reevaluation of ESG strategies, with some companies scaling back their commitments. The article highlights the challenges of aligning long-term sustainability goals with short-term financial pressures and the difficulty of predicting the sustainability of new job roles in the finance sector.
