Brandeis Center Joins JFNA Letter Urging Morningstar Remove Bias From Its Product

Earlier today, a group of prominent Jewish organizations, sent a letter to American financial services firm Morningstar.
.
In addition to urging that Morningstar carry out independent investigators’ recommendations addressing anti-Israel bias in its social justice rating system (ESG), the joint letter advocates further steps ensuring that the bias is eliminated.
.
Brandeis Center Vice Chair Rachel Lerman commented on the investigators’ report in her June 14 Jerusalem Post article noting that Morningstar’s Sustainalytics ESG methodology must be overhauled to ensure it is objective and reliable, and not a conduit for BDS activism.
