Targeted ESG regulations needed to ensure intended outcomes

Etica Sgr's chairman Ugo Biggeri

INCENTIVES or disincentives for companies to encourage the adoption of environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices would need to be very precise and targeted.

This is so that the outcomes would be in line with expectations so as to not put any crucial industries such as oil and gas or plantations, for example, in danger of an existential threat due to the strong global push on the green energy agenda presently.
