Sustainability strategy and governance

Embed sustainability at the heart of your strategy

Unlock your business's full potential by integrating sustainability from a mere requirement to a core strategic asset, leveraging our expertise to transform environmental, social, and governance challenges into avenues of growth and innovation.

Sustainability as strategic imperative

In the current climate of rapid market evolution, sustainability transcends regulatory compliance to become a pivotal business driver. 

Amidst increasing expectations from clients, investors, and regulators, forward-thinking companies are elevating sustainability to a core strategic lever.

By integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations into business operations, forward-looking firms are not just managing costs and risks; they're also unlocking new opportunities, enhancing stakeholder trust, and cementing their market position.

Navigating the landscape with strategic frameworks

Strategic sustainability is not about ticking boxes but about charting a course for long-term success. 

Global frameworks such as those from the Global Reporting Initiative, the European Union's Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive with its European Sustainability Reporting Standards, and the International Sustainability Standards Board serve as compasses in this endeavour. 

These frameworks don’t just guide reporting; they empower corporations to align sustainability initiatives with their long-term business goals and the looming horizon of regulatory expectations.

Some examples of our work in financial strategies

Advancing ESG performance through robust scoring models

Challenge

The client, a major global

insurance company, sought a

unified approach to assess their

entire capital investments (7bn €) according to ESG principles.

The goal was to shift their portfolio of stocks, government, and corporate bonds towards

greater sustainability.

Solution

An extensive stakeholder

engagement process, involving

more than 70 experts from 40

reputable organisations

(scientists, economists, and

NGOs) to shortlist key ESG

indicators. A comprehensive ESG scoring model was built based on this process, allowing to assess the ESG performance of over 18,000 individual positions from 600 issuers.

Results

The cooperation has set an important precedent in the insurance sector, showcasing how strategic partnerships can drive significant advancements in sustainability. For the client, basing their investment strategy on “ESG integration” made the entire capital investments transparent and allowed for target setting. The project won the reputable TRIGOS Award in 2015.

Integrating sustainability into investment management at a major CEE bank

Challenge

A major Central and Eastern

European (CEE) bank was seeking to direct investments towards environmentally beneficial projects, offering their customers a “green” alternative to conventional investments.

Solution

An asset management approach that reviewed assets according to strict WWF criteria. The approach combined “negative screening”

(where certain sectors and

products were entirely excluded

from the portfolio) with

“sustainability-themed investing”, directing funds towards sustainable products and services). The decision of including an asset into the investment portfolio was ultimately taken by an independent stakeholder council, consisting of experts in

the fields of E, S and G.

Results

This project was one of the

pioneering initiatives in Austria

to integrate sustainability into

financial products.

As the first-of-its-kind

cooperation between an NGO

and a financial institution in

Austria, it helped raise awareness about the importance of sustainable investments.
