Join us from 16:30 for a 17:00-18:15pm Panel Discussion and Q&A. Following the panel discussion, you are invited to join us for a networking reception where we will continue to debate the key themes and approaches.
The Environmental criteria include the energy companies take in and the waste they discharge, the resources it needs, and the consequences for living beings as a result. Not least, it encompasses carbon emissions and climate change. Every company uses energy and resources; every company affects, and is affected by, the environment.
Social criteria address the relationships companies have and the reputation they foster with people and institutions in the communities where they do business. It includes employee relations and diversity and inclusion. Every company operates within a broader, diverse society.
Governance covers the internal system of practices, controls, and procedures companies adopt to govern themselves, make effective decisions, comply with the law, and meet the needs of external stakeholders. Every company, which is itself a legal creation, requires governance.
In this session we will examine three key themes:
1. Why does an effective ESG approach underpin international trade and success
2. Why does it matter to your employees
3. How to build an effective ESG approach
Our agenda:
1. What the investment community is looking for with ESG - ABSA
2. The importance of ESG to employee recruitment and retention – The Gen Z perspective
3. A practical view – how De La Rue became recognised as an FT leader in ESG
4. What we are doing to deliver ESG – Crown Agents Bank
5. Practical Guidance – key steps to improve your approach to ESG – Mott McDonald
6. Panel Q&A
