Podcast: ESG and business strategy - Why corporate purpose is key to demonstrating authenticity

ESG has become an essential part of the business strategy of our clients and many other companies. Broader concepts that inform the value of the company such as climate change, sustainability, diversity and social impact have the power to make or break a company’s reputation, as well as its investment potential. How, then, can those companies that wish to present well on ESG ensure that these issues are at the heart of their strategy and be communicated to stakeholders?
