Sustainability Moving Markets

2:00 - 2:30

Corporate sustainability reporting is too often dismissed as regulatory boilerplate—worthy but peripheral. Yet a growing body of evidence shows that doing better than peers on decarbonisation, disclosure, and sustainable operations can be a driver of returns, not a drag on them. This panel brings together measurement specialists, ratings agencies and exchanges to explore how markets are sharpening the tools that tie environmental performance to financial value. Drawing on real-world case studies—from index methodologies to corporate strategies—the discussion will cut through the jargon to show how sustainability can expand market share, attract capital, and improve resilience in uncertain times.
