   Can you make Sustainable, attainable? When it comes to embedding Sustainable practices into your business, where do they go? Are they at the top of the list, the centre of the business framework? Or an add on, an afterthought to tick a few boxes? It is potentially possible, but highly unlikely that the impact will be the same for both strategies. The ability to influence and inspire both your staff team and your stakeholders will certainly be poles apart depending on your choices. Taking the long-term view that sustainable practices will in turn yield cost savings in relation to energy efficiency, waste reduction and/or reuse, as well as the distinct possibilities of stronger consumer/staff loyalty coupled with attracting a broader market, makes having a sustainability policy integral to all you do as a business. We have a long and successful association with helping clients to maximise the potentials around sustainable practices within their companies and would love it if we can help your business too.

According to Enhesa's new report, based on surveying over 900 corporate leaders, along with 20 in-depth interviews, executives and practitioners are challenged by the growing list of sustainability compliance obligations and reporting requirements placed on them - and as a result, many are re-thinking their approach to ESG risk management. #compliance #ESG #sustainabilty #Enhesa #risk

This is outstanding Ted Talk on Sustainability which we think is deserving to be in our updated forthcoming 3rd edition of our textbook "Risk Management for Individuals ad Enterprises" (published by Flatworld Knowledge)

The ESG disclosure landscape is complex and rapidly evolving, posing compliance challenges and risks for companies. However, it also presents opportunities for better integration of sustainability considerations into corporate strategy and risk management, and more useful sustainability reporting. It was a pleasure working with Rebecca Grapsas Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP on an op-ed outlining steps companies can take to mitigate risk and maximize opportunities in this evolving field. https://lnkd.in/ewthtbwT The Conference Board The Conference Board Europe #ESGCenter Merel Spierings Christine Guinessey Manali Paranjpe Sustainable Views

Pleased to share an insightful piece by David Suetens in Henry Stewart's Journal of Risk Management in Financial Institutions that offers concrete advice and strategic insights into integrating sustainability within financial institutions. "Sustainability has thus become increasingly crucial for banks (as intermediaries) and corporates to remain competitive and relevant in today’s world." This paper provides clarity over the ever-evolving landscape marked by regulatory changes, technological advancements, and emerging risks, urging financial institutions to consider sustainability not merely as a compliance exercise but as a core aspect of corporate strategy. David argues for the creation of a cross-business and cross-functional governance structure, emphasising, "Today, sustainability should be integral to the development of a company’s corporate strategy." He then delves into the practicality of establishing a dedicated sustainability oversight committee that reports directly to the (supervisory) board, providing a blueprint for companies to navigate and thrive in the sustainability journey. This is a must-read for those invested in the intersection of finance and sustainability; this paper not only sheds light on the complexities of integrating sustainability into corporate governance but also underscores the potential business opportunities arising from a thorough sustainability agenda.

I'm looking forward to this Commercial Risk webinar on Thursday. We have a number of clients in the #RiskManagement space, and reporting is always a hot topic. The upcoming #CorporateSustainabilityReportingDirective undoubtedly force risk managers to switch up their risk reporting, but will the increased regulation and reporting around #ESG and #CSR ultimately improve their resilience? Or tie them up in reporting knots? It'll be great to hear some insights from those in the know - Jessica Balsam | Timo Herold

Excited to join an enlightening online event today! 🌟 Delving into the latest updates on Sustainability Reporting standards in Europe, with a focus on the adoption of Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive #CSRD - The event was organized by Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), Lefebvre Sarrut and Pascal Durand - Two round tables, many inspiring speakers, so many insights to digest - One of the key #insights is that #disclosure represents just one aspect of the equation; there's much more to be addressed.

Last but not least, a very useful publication, to foster deeper comprehension and engagement for companies and stakeholders worldwide #sustainability #sustainabilityreporting

https://lnkd.in/d_Kr6YrG <<The increased emphasis on transparency underscores the importance of disclosure. In this regard, the disclosure frameworks largely align with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures, which cover governance, strategies for identifying and assessing risks and opportunities, their impacts on a company's finances and operations, resilience-building through scenario analyses, risk management integration with the overall organizational risk management, and the use of metrics and targets to measure performance.>> #ESG #transparency #climate #taskforce #scenario #riskmanagement #performance #opportunities #company #strategy #management
