| The Directors' E&S Guidebook - A practical resource to understand and navigate investors' expectations on board oversight and disclosure on environmental and social matters | ||
 | ||
|
Environmental and social (E&S) factors, such as climate change and diversity, continue to grow in prominence in the investment community and society at-large. It is increasingly recognized that E&S matters are critical drivers of a company's strategy and risk management, and ultimately, business sustainability.
This webinar provides the opportunity for corporate directors, investors, corporate secretaries, investor relations professionals and securities lawyers to learn about investors' emerging expectations regarding the governance of E&S factors. The Directors' E&S Guidebook was developed following interviews with directors from some of the leading companies in Canada and abroad, combined with an extensive literature review on the topic of board E&S governance and significant input from investors. The recently published guidebook outlines 29 principles-based E&S recommendations covering eight key governance areas, providing practical insights for effective board oversight and company disclosure of E&S matters. Join us to learn about this useful resource and hear insights from both the institutional investor and corporate director perspectives. CCGG's members together manage almost $4 trillion in assets |
