President Ramaphosa's call to action on the green

programme post-Covid, the President's impetus to look at
strategies to build an inclusive economy that creates sustainable
growth is vital.
Across the broader spectrum of Environmental, Social and
Governance (ESG), we have seen increased awareness, understanding
and expectation for a step-change in the way it is incorporated and
embedded into business.
