Introduction

ESG criteria impact all companies, across various industries, including corporations, investors, and rating agencies. Corporates utilize ESG information for decision making and stakeholder communication. The ESG information disclosed to the public has been widely used by investors and ESG data providers. However, companies vary in maturity of controlling the production of ESG information, which leads to a big challenge for all the players in the market – the quality of ESG data.

To enhance the confidence of stakeholders, including investors, employees, and customers, a third-party expert view becomes desirable to add the credibility and reliability to ESG data. Many guidance have been published recently on independent assurance.

This webinar will help you understand the background and impact of ESG and how you could benefit from the external assurance by having independent perspective on your sustainability reporting and underlying processes.
