Sustainability Economics specialises in research and advisory on sustainability as a key value driver. We collaborate with organisations to design and integrate sustainability in their decision-making processes, enhancing long-term value creation, and addressing complex challenges in environment and nature strategies.
Sustainability covers a broad set of topics important for supply chain risk management and strategy. They include risks and opportunities associated with climate and nature, greenhouse gas emissions, stakeholder relations, business ethics, and human rights, among others. Beyond financial materiality, the impacts of business operation on people and the planet directly and indirectly affect a business's relationship with a broad set of internal and external stakeholders who increasingly expect businesses to interact responsibly with the environment and the stakeholders.
Sustainability is becoming an urgent and important topic that businesses increasingly prioritise. Whether sustainability impacts are seen as risks, opportunities, or both depends on the nature of the business activities. With the implementation of disclosure regulations and the release of transparency standards, sustainability-related assessments affect businesses across value chains, sectors and geographies.
