Managing Fraud Risks in an Evolving ESG Environment
Event Description
With global ESG investing expected to reach $53 trillion by 2025, the market is smitten with companies claiming strong environmental, social and governance policies. With investing decisions increasingly being made based on these nonfinancial factors and a lack of consistent definitions, standards, and metrics around ESG, a new fraud opportunity has been born.
In this session, hear why the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission issued a risk alert related to ESG investing, review the most egregious ESG frauds, and learn what organizations should be doing to properly manage this emerging fraud risk.
