Our panel discusses the strategies, initiatives and tactics that listed companies can use to respond to investor expectations:

• How mature are organisations with their ESG strategy?
• Learn about the underlying drivers shaping the future of ESG
• Why data is vital to show investors that you are compliant
• What activities are companies undertaking to help provide information on the most relevant sustainability and corporate governance issues that investors are focused on?
• Understand how investor relations and sustainability teams can work together to create more effective investor engagement
• Discover what has worked, what hasn’t and why

• How do investors integrate ESG data into their investment decision-making?
• Why do sustainability outcomes matter to investors?
• How does this point of view impact stock valuations and selection processes in reality?
• How can corporate CFOs and finance teams better articulate the business case for sustainability-related investments to their investors?
