In recent years, environmental, social and governance (ESG) reporting for companies has moved from a "nice-to-have" to an integral part of corporate strategy. An increasing awareness of the need to address the material environmental and social risks and opportunities against a backdrop of strong governance is driving increased reporting. Meanwhile, stakeholder pressure to measure and manage ESG performance is mounting, further supported by regulatory tailwinds.

Thus, being proactive in monitoring current and emerging ESG regulations to ensure compliance and remain competitive has become a business imperative.
