Environment, Social & Governance (ESG)

Today, climate change concerns are spurring governments, countries, and consumers to prioritise more on developing more sustainable practices. Businesses are increasingly seeking ways to implement sustainability into their business strategies and approaches.

The application of Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices is both a responsibility and opportunity for businesses in the green sector. We believe that it is essential for firms to align their long-term business aims with ESG for them to seize these opportunities and grow.

InCorp Global is fully equipped to help you navigate through the ESG landscape with an initial pre-assessment to start the process. We tap on our vast technology and advisory capabilities to tailor-make our ESG offerings to your business and deliver the best value.

Incorporating ESG into your company’s practices offers plenty of advantages:

• It gives you a competitive edge
• It boosts your company’s reputation and trust with consumers
• It provides financial benefits with increased profitability
• Safeguards your organisation against climate-associated risks with sustainable practices
