From Leeya:
I thought I would share the below content on ESG as we are looking to include a one slider in our EBR updates to our customers. It starts to connect our relevance to their business and strengthen the need for communicating their ESG efforts, and as such the utilization of the effective tools to do so, using our platform.
Many of our customers/partners focus on it and are aligning their brand and company vision and efforts to it so even more so a great opportunity to position our solution.

With our ESG brand awareness gaining reach, it’s a great way to start to connect the boarder challenges and relevance to the market as well.
The need for “ESG” is here. For many, the term “ESG” brings to mind environmental issues like climate change and resource scarcity. These form an element of ESG-and an important one-but the term means much more. It covers social issues like a company’s labour practices, talent management, product safety and data security. Drive growth and focus on the value of your ESG investing, enhance your tools for better communications of your ESG efforts
I read a great article and thought I would share, on how investors poured a record-shattering €120 billion into sustainable investment options in 2019, based on Morningstar. More than a third of the year’s inflows – €47.3 billion – came in the final three months of 2019 as it drive towards sustainable investing which picked up pace since. “Strong inflows were driven mainly by growing investor interest in ESG issues. Investors increasingly want to align their investments with their values and sustainability preferences.”
