“As a leading commercial insurer and reinsurer, partnering with many of the world’s leading corporations and brands, we know that focusing on sustainability isn’t just a good thing to do, it’s good risk management.”
Gunter added: “Consumer interest in the environmental and social governance standards of the companies they buy from, increased activism, shareholder pressures and increased regulatory oversight are major factors putting sustainability at the center of how companies operate.
