ACT Webinar - Sustainability and ESG: what role should you play?

Online
12:30 - 13:15 BST, Thursday 22 April 2021

Will upcoming sustainable regulatory and political change result in clearer and globalised standards? 

For many organisations, ESG has slowly crept up on them with roles and responsibilities often unclear and the collection of data overwhelming. We often hear the cry that no two treasury teams are the same, and it can equally apply to the management of ESG risks.

We heard from two treasurers on how they see their roles as we look at the challenges facing the collection and management of ESG related data. Joining was director from the sustainable finance team at Refinitiv, an LSEG business, shared some insights on how this global financial markets infrastructure and data business looks at data from a number of different lenses.

Topics discussed:

  • How are ESG responsibilities managed across an organisation
  • Various roles we see treasurers play today
  • What are some of the key challenges in collecting financial and non-financial ESG data
  • How to measure your carbon footprint
  • What are the benefits of good ESG data management
  • Global ESG reporting and benchmark landscape
