Dear Reader,
As we are transitioning to a green economy, there are two important questions a company or organisation should be asking:
1) How will we benefit from the transition to the green economy?
2) Are our competitors better prepared, gaining a competitive advantage?
Your competitors will gain a competitive advantage if they are better prepared/preparing for:
• Changes and stricter regulations regarding emissions, adjusting their products and services accordingly.
• Changes in buying patterns and investment decisions taken by newer generations, which are overwhelmingly pro-sustainability.
• Stricter stock exchange rules (World Federation of Exchanges (WFE) fully aligned with GRI Standards).
• The EU Directive: Large Companies must report non-financial information.
• Investors who want to see that a company is well-prepared for the foreseeable future.
• Ever growing supply chain pressure. Companies are choosing to do business with corporations that can provide sustainability-related information and data and can demonstrate that they are aware of environmental, economic and societal risks, taking continuous action. These companies are looking for long-term, sustainable relationships.
