Investor’s Guide to Tackling the ‘S’ in ESG

EventsInvestor’s Guide to Tackling the ‘S’ in ESG

Today, an estimated 24.9 million people around the world are victims of forced labour, generating $150 billion in illegal profits in the private economy, according to KnowTheChain.

Not only is this a grave injustice, but the financial materiality of social responsibility is critical for investors and corporates. Scrutiny from consumers, investors, media and regulators dictate that now, more than ever, maintenance of a transparent and responsible supply chain is financially material.
