We are delighted to invite you, in collaboration with the IFIS (Institute for Financial Integrity and Sustainability) to a special event : ESG Under Fire: Why It Still Matters.

ESG is facing increasing pushback - criticised for over-regulation and questioned for its real-world impact. Yet despite the controversy, many continue to see enduring value in its core principles. Far from being a passing trend, responsible business practices - whether framed as ESG or otherwise - remain a powerful driver of long-term resilience and success.

Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on why ESG still matters, and how companies can stay the course amid shifting expectations
