ESG METRICS INTERNATIONAL EXECUTIVE PROGRAM

V EDITION - 13 - 24 November 2023 | 12:00 - 13:30 (CET)

Without metrics, there is no ESG

New regulations and investments that consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) aspects represent an opportunity, but also an enormous workload, risks and responsibilities for professionals in the sector.

On January 1, for example, the new CSRD Directive comes into force and, although countries like Spain have already advanced some of its requirements, the new ESRS standards raise doubts, not to mention the new global IFRS standards.

On the other hand, greenwashing, greenhushing, the «regulatory avalanche» and the lack of understanding of ESG-related aspects, objectives, metrics and data are making the work of professionals who truly want to manage and improve the sustainability of companies difficult. and investments.

The main answer to “ecowashing” and also to “ecosilence” is to understand and measure ESG aspects and impacts in order to be able to provide – more safely, homogeneously and optimally – investors, regulators and other stakeholders a comprehensive assessment of the performance of a company or an investment fund.

Without metrics, there is no true ESG.

In other words, ESG without metrics is greenwashing. On the other hand, metrics provide security and response to greenhushing. And, most importantly, ESG metrics help understand, manage, efficiency, and improve sustainability.

The objective of the ESG Metrics International Executive Program is to present and discuss the main ESG metrics through interactive classes, presentations and online case studies. In addition to the theoretical-practical classes and exercises, in this fifth edition we have the privilege of having invited experts from various entities and countries: Bank of Spain, BBVA, CaixaBank, EFRAG, GRI, IFRS, Meliá Hoteles, Opdenergy, Repsol, S&P Global Ratings, WWF and others.

A unique opportunity, at a key moment, to understand and update yourself with what regulators, NGOs, banks, companies, rating agencies and other actors think, expect and do.

Dates: from November 13 to 24
