ESG Monitor 2024: Registration now open

Register here to the ESG Monitor online global launch on October 16 (CEST)

Public expectations have shifted priorities around ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) from a corporate choice to a necessity, demanding businesses take the lead in building a sustainable and responsible future. At the same time, new ESG regulations are driving increased accountability and transparency, in a climate where trust is often lacking.

SEC Newgate’s ESG Monitor research study examines the views of more than 14,000 people across 14 countries to gain insight into their awareness and perspectives on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues.

The results reveal strong expectations from the public for companies to behave responsibly and play a more active role in society and address key questions like:

• How important are ESG issues to individuals? Which matter most to people?
• Are governments and businesses meeting community expectations and demands when it comes to ESG actions?
• Should companies prioritise the interests of all stakeholders, or is it more important for them to focus primarily on shareholder needs in the context of responsible business practices? Should businesses publicly address environmental and social issues or are these topics too divisive?
• To what extent should companies communicate their ESG commitments and issues and what can they do to avoid scepticism?

To know more, register to the online global launch on 16 October 2024 (10 CEST) and listen to the presentation of the key results of the 2024 ESG Monitor by Sue Vercoe, Managing Partner of SEC Newgate Australia, and the following panel discussion featuring:
