Details information of Webinar :  

 

The coronavirus pandemic accelerates the interconnectedness between sustainability and the financial market, with responsible investing being on the trajectory to the mainstream. Better ESG performing companies are associated with lower risks and higher returns, which can be reflected in the company’s value. Hence, establishing a systematic approach to integrate ESG factors into fair value calculation is of paramount importance for optimizing investment strategy.

 

In the first part of the seminar, our speaker, Mr Kenson Yeung of Jones Lang LaSalle will highlight the impacts of ESG on companies' growth, credit ratings and financial performance. In the second part of the seminar, Ms. Kit-fong Law from CLP, will share how their reporting approach evolves to meet the changing regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations.
