Corporate sustainability has come a long way from the environmental concerns of the 1970s. Today, sustainability is a strategic business consideration driven by various market forces and encompasses environmental, social and governance issues. It poses opportunities and risks to businesses, and defines what growth needs to look like for a sustainable future.  Stakeholders are driving this agenda, both as a minimum expectation for business continuity and as a market differentiator for increased competitiveness. This includes, among others:

  • An exponentially increasing number of governments who are introducing environmental, social and governance (ESG) requirements and carbon pricing into law,
  • Large companies who are relying on their global supply chains to reduce their carbon footprint and to mitigate labour practice risks, and
  • Investors and financial institutions who are screening and stewarding key ESG considerations.

Professionals in all sectors and functions today are expected to understand, contribute to, and lead the sustainability pursuits of the company. There is no doubt that sustainability and sustainable finance presents a sharp learning curve, but the ability and speed to gain this understanding is a critical factor of success for companies today.
