PURPOSE

The objective of the Expert Group ESG is to share knowledge and expertise on ESG related topics with each other so we can continuously learn and develop and further strengthen the Compliance domain on ESG. This knowledge is also shared within the VCO member community, to guide the members through this new and increasingly important topic. This is done by organizing events, publishing relevant articles, providing workshops and creating a tool with hyperlinks to the rules and regulations, accompanied by a brief description.

As ESG is such an enormous broad domain, the Expert Group will focus on pillars that are determined based on important topics in current affairs. Examples of these pillars are reporting / transparency / disclosure and ESG liability.
