Companies across all industries are making strong purpose-driven commitments and strategic shifts

We have a narrow window of time — the next 10 years — to take the decisions needed to alter the trajectory of climate change.

Reducing the reliance on oil and gas as a major source of energy and transitioning towards green or sustainable energy is not just an environmental concern but is becoming a business imperative to improve energy security and resilience. In some sort of brutal historical irony, recent tragic events such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the conflict in the Ukraine are likely contributors and accelerants of dramatic change in the energy sector.

That has changed in recent times as public awareness of the world’s environmental and social challenges has grown and with it the demand for businesses and policymakers to take action. This has risen to the top of the agenda post-COP26 at the tail end of last year. ESG assets are expected to double by 2025 among investors with $25-trillion in assets. Almost eight in 10 asset managers surveyed globally incorporate qualitative or quantitative ESG factor assessments into their investment processes.

By embedding ESG into their strategies, companies are positively influencing their brand, corporate reputation, improve capital access, market valuation, enhance operational efficiencies and notably attract talent into their organisation. This last point is particularly relevant for younger talent seeking employment with companies that embrace deeper societal and an emerging consistent set of global values.
