G'day team. Week six, "What is ESG?"
You've probably seen the letters "ESG" floating around. They stand for Environmental, Social, and Governance.
In plain terms, it's about how a business treats the planet, how it treats people, and how well it's run. That's really all it is.
Now, here's the bit worth knowing. ESG itself isn't a law. It's more like a report card that investors, banks, and larger companies use to size up a business. What is the law is the climate reporting we've been chatting about over the past few weeks. That's just one part of the ESG picture.
So, if someone mentions "ESG" to you, don't stress. It's not a new form. It's just the umbrella term for all this. Same rule as always. If you're not sure what they're actually asking for, bring it to me. Righto, let's get into it.
