ESG Disclosures in Prospectus

ABOUT THE PROGRAMME

Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) disclosures in prospectus have transcended from a mere corporate responsibility to becoming a primary driver in a company’s successful initial public offering (IPO) exercise. Investors, regulators and stakeholders are increasingly demanding transparency and accountability in ESG matters. A sustainable equity story going beyond the required prospectus requirements is crucial for the IPO’s success. By including clear and robust ESG disclosures in a prospectus, companies would garner higher valuations and appeal to a wider range of investors to access capital at more favourable terms. As enhanced disclosure requirements are imminent, it is crucial for companies and advisers to proactively plan appropriate ESG disclosures for more reliable and credible information in a prospectus.
This webinar will provide participants an overview of the latest ESG trends on disclosures with an understanding of ESG considerations and how they relate to businesses. From attracting ethical investors, enhancing long-term sustainability to the impact on a company’s valuations, the speakers will share invaluable insights into why ESG should be an integral part of your pre-IPO strategy. In addition, the webinar will discuss case studies of ESG disclosures in prospectuses and highlight recommended practices that participants can apply in an IPO exercise.
