FLT 2013 focused on integrating sustainability into finance, investment and reporting. The objectives were to develop understanding of sustainability opportunities and challenges associated with business and finance; to explore how material, social, environmental and governance considerations could best be incorporated into investment and financial practices, and to actively participate in the global debate.
One of the FLT group wrote a brochure on Risk management: “Getting Sustainability Risks onto Managements’ Agenda - Moving from Theory to Opportunity”. This paper gives an overview of theoretical approaches as well as best practices from selected companies and conclude with recommendations for the future.
