As many companies would have heard of the increased urgent emphasis on Sustainability or Environment, Social, Governance (“ESG”) in the last 2 years. Larger companies become more selective in working only with business partners who take ESG practices seriously, their trading partners, including small-medium enterprises (SMEs), can no longer afford to operate under ‘business as usual.’

Organisations with strong ESG ratings will have greater opportunities to access financing, including Green Finance. Further, Malaysia has set an aspiration to be carbon neutral as early as 2050; in line with that, several Malaysian companies have set their net-zero targets between 2030-2050.
