Je m'inscris à la liste d'intérêt
In the financial sector, the importance of ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) is increasingly recognized. Sustainability is more than just a buzzword. It is an essential part of the business strategy. As a business banker, you are central to advising and supporting companies, which is why it is crucial to be well informed about these developments. During our awareness training, we will discuss the legal obligations around sustainability, the impact of stakeholders and how sustainability reports are prepared and evaluated. This knowledge will enable you to understand not only why sustainability is such an important topic, but also how to integrate it into the advice you give to your customers.
The objectives of this training are:
- understand why sustainability is important for businesses;
- explain the legal obligations related to sustainability;
- identify stakeholders and understand their role in sustainability;
- integrating sustainability into the value chain;
- understand and assess sustainability reports with a focus on (double) materiality;
- making a strategic and operational impact with sustainability.
