Sustainability 2021 - An investor’s perspective

 

While the sustainability landscape in early 2020 was initially framed by the urgency of the global environmental crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic has subsequently played a defining role in expediting and broadening the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) lens. Those at the margins of society were exposed quickest and spotlighted a broader range of issues from income inequality, diversity and inclusion to social injustice and employee welfare.

Investors have concluded that they can no longer look the other way and are ready to address these ESG issues within their portfolios. The sustainability ‘asks’ on business are growing in complexity and are challenging to navigate. This white paper distils the sustainability and ESG key trends that organisations need to know to meet increased shareholder and wider stakeholder expectations.
