ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance)

APEMETA, in celebration of World Environment Day, held another edition of the “APEMETA Mornings”, this time dedicated to ESG as a strategic business tool. This event was attended by us with the presentation “how to report ESG criteria”. During the session, which was also attended by representatives of C-MORE, Banco BPI and Lipor, it was clear that although sustainability reporting within the scope of ESG is not mandatory for most of the Portuguese companies, customers or even banks are already requesting information from companies about their level of maturity in terms of commitment and ESG indicators. It is thus concluded that ESG is a strategic tool for the development of organisations, namely in terms of competitiveness, differentiation and access to finance.
