Dealing with the ever-evolving expectations and requirements around environmental and social matters has become a challenge for many companies, and in particular those who sit outside the associated regulatory regimes.

Our new QCA Environmental and Social Guide seeks to cut through the noise by breaking down the key elements of good practice and investor expectations in small and mid-caps into five principles-based pillars.

The Guide provides clear steps to develop your approach to the environmental and social issues that matter most to you, allowing you to take ownership of your story with confidence.

This webinar will introduce the Guide and will have time for questions at the end.
