Demystifying Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG): Charting the ESG Course in Africa de Karamo NM Sonko

Demystifying Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG): Charting the ESG Course in Africa: Palgrave Studies in Impact Finance

Autor Karamo NM Sonko, Mariama Sonko
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 aug 2023
​Addressing a topic at the forefront of global interests in business and development, this book is the first comprehensive book in the world that addresses ESG wholistically. It combines academic and practical content through multidisciplinary analysis, integrating economics, statistics, finance, strategic management and mathematics with an African focus. The book argues that ESG is largely in the interest of the firms/companies themselves, in addition to benefitting the larger society in which they exist. It also makes it everyone's responsibility to play a part in addressing global climate challenges. Thus, the book views the survival of the corporations, economies and the larger societies as interlinked. It will be of interest to researchers, policymakers and business persons in and outside of Africa.
