With rising demand from investors and other key stakeholders to address the environmental, social and governance issues they face, companies are considering how they can effectively manage their most material ESG issues. In this episode, featuring insights from our recent webinar on the topic, we examine some of the key ESG issues facing companies in industries with the highest average ESG risk and explore how companies can manage those issues effectively.
Companies with lower ESG risk can also learn important lessons in ESG risk management from those in high ESG risk industries. Many of these issues are common across industries, giving companies an opportunity to learn more about managing ESG risk exposure from their peers.
