ESG Hub
ESG factors have moved from be­ing a niche con­cern to a stra­tegic board level
pri­or­ity across all sec­tors and jur­is­dic­tions. Wheth­er a busi­ness is a
fin­an­cial in­sti­tu­tion, an en­ergy com­pany, or a tech start-up – all
com­pan­ies with a fu­ture must now fo­cus on ESG as a busi­ness im­per­at­ive.

Pro­tec­tion from protest
Protest on the streets, protest on­line, even lit­ig­a­tion used as a vehicle
for protest.Protest­ors tar­get­ing a busi­ness may be stand­ing in a crowd,
hold­ing a plac­ard or shout­ing slo­gans. But they may also be be­hind a
com­puter screen or pur­su­ing a claim against the busi­ness through the courts.
They may even be work­ing in­side the busi­ness, pre­par­ing to com­prom­ise its
sys­tems or leak con­fid­en­tial in­form­a­tion.Wheth­er they are act­iv­ists,
em­ploy­ees or cus­tom­ers, all these protest­ors may present a sub­stan­tial
chal­lenge and a real threat to busi­nesses, in areas in­clud­ing its
se­cur­ity, repu­ta­tion and bot­tom line.

Ten takeaways from COP27
COP27 fi­nally reached a con­clu­sion on Sunday morn­ing, when over­run­ning
ne­go­ti­ations ended in a deal that de­lighted some sleep-de­prived del­eg­ates
but bit­terly dis­ap­poin­ted oth­ers. Pro­gress was made on the is­sue of loss
and dam­age, a fraught ques­tion for three dec­ades. But there was much less
suc­cess in build­ing on the agree­ment reached at COP26 a year earli­er. In the
