ESG Governance, Risk Management and Compliance
As ESG moves up the corporate and consumer agenda, greenwashing is a real concern for companies wishing to make a genuine positive impact. At present, a lack of risk-based ESG management and disclosure can lead to undervaluation by investors and underappreciation by employees and consumers. Managing reputation and customer perception risks across the expanded ESG landscape will help build trust and contribute to a sustainable future.
What EY can do for you
We believe ESG governance, risk management and compliance are the cornerstones of trust in ESG – and the foundations of genuine change ambitions. Sometimes, though, companies struggle to understand which ESG risks they’re exposed to, let alone assess them clearly or define appropriate measures based on good data and their own risk appetite.
EY understands the complexity of ESG risks and helps you find ways to make managing them simple. We’re supporting some of the world’s best known companies on their ESG journeys and can help you on yours. We deliver in multiskilled teams and can quickly mobilize expertise from anywhere in the world to respond to your needs.
Together, we’ll find new ways to manage ESG risk and move towards a sustainable future.
