Jared will be speaking on the topic of Bringing ESG to your Organization: What you need to know.
It is clear there is increased awareness on the sustainability of business organizations today. That awareness has prompted more transparency on how business practices align with environmental and social issues of concern to stakeholders. There is a vast body of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) knowledge and that presents a challenge to corporate executives today. That is, it’s difficult for corporate executives to understand what ESG initiatives should be prioritized within their organizations.
We will share our observations about where organizations are focusing their ESG efforts and what issues are more pertinent to Financial Institutions as we continue to monitor the regulatory landscape. Climate risk management is only one segment of the ESG conversation, but it is an issue which continues to be at the forefront of the regulatory agenda. We will discuss methodologies on how to identify climate-related threats and vulnerabilities to your organization and locate opportunities for mitigation.
Key Takeaways:
- Learn what the expectations are from various stakeholders, including the regulators’ perspectives
- Understand the specific risks from ESG and Climate and how to determine how they may apply to your Financial Institution
- Understand what strategic opportunities there are for Financial Institutions who adopt ESG
- Identify where you are on your ESG journey and what can you do now to build structure around your ESG program development
