About
Investor relations and sustainability must be considered together to meet the challenges of modern capital markets communication. This is precisely where the new econsense format comes in. At our roundtable at Deloitte, we bring together experts from the specialist departments of econsense member companies to share fresh insights and best practices and discuss current developments.
This includes addressing the following questions: What are the trends and risks of sustainability-related capital markets communication? And above all: How do successful ESG and risk management intertwine in these turbulent times?
The format offers a variety of insights and ample time for a trusting exchange among major German companies that represent different industries and share a global shareholder structure and sales markets.
