German term or phrase: Mandat auflegen
"Problematisch sind Covered Bonds, da es bisher schwierig war, ESG-Risiken hinreichend zu quantifizieren. Bei Anlagen in Schwellenländern ist die ESG-Analyse noch relatives Neuland, das aber allmählich erschlossen wird. YY Advisors hat hier bereits Mandate aufgelegt. Auch darf man den ESG-Ansatz nicht als Versicherung gegen sämtliche Katastrophen missverstehen. Wir können nicht alle Risiken eliminieren – aber wir können sie begrenzen."

agree  RobinB: Right. Absolutely nothing to do with "impose". If investors "impose" a mandate on an asset manager, they're unlikely to get very good results....
