Environmental, social and governance (ESG)
Environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations that socially conscious investors use to screen potential investments. Environmental criteria consider how a company performs as a steward of nature. Social criteria examine how it manages relationships with employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities where it operates. Governance deals with a company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls, and shareholder rights.
Governance Workshops
Conducting responsible business has gained increasing attention over the past few years with many institutional investors increasingly financing only those companies that provide appropriate “Environment Social and Governance” (ESG) reporting and disclosures. PICG offers workshops such as ‘ESG-101’, ‘Addressing Workplace Sexual Harassment’ and various others to enable organizations to improve their governance tactics.
