Key Takeaways from our Speakers
- ESG is all about the ability of corporations to create and sustain long-term value in the areas of environment, social and governance and to manage the associated changes, risks and opportunities.
- There are various metrics around ESG and continuous regulatory developments happening in this area in the form of ratings and reporting.
- It is adopted globally now with maximum economies covered.
- Existing regulatory mandates in India on "Business Responsibility and Sustainability Reporting".
- "Someone's waste can be someone else's treasure". Highlighting the importance of circular economy, waste can be transformed into raw material for someone else using technical interventions.
- Sustainability is a part of a leader's vision as it also concerns creating value and return in the long run, and it cannot be just a short-term management exercise.
- Relating development of a nation with sustainability, there are always tradeoffs. Infrastructural development in itself creates jobs and greatly contributes to the national economy. Hence such tradeoffs always demand sustainability to be a balancing act.
