We found businesses see many levers by which ESG can drive financial value, but that also drives complexity for organising a cohesive, well-understood strategy that can overcome some very real challenges businesses are facing today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>KPMG U.S. ESG Audit Leader, Maura Hodge, commented, \u201cFor many companies, ESG reporting requirements are already here even as we await the SEC\u2019s final rule. While convergence has begun, organisations will undoubtedly struggle to navigate the web of global requirements as we determine the interoperability of the standards. The very cautious confidence among companies on reporting underscores the urgency to align one\u2019s reporting approach with business strategy today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fisher added, \u201cESG\u2019s wide-ranging impacts and levers make it an incredibly unique coordination challenge for leaders. The risk of falling behind can compound, turning today\u2019s headache into a long-term struggle as competitors pull away. The upcoming reporting requirements should ignite urgency to align one\u2019s reporting with strategy today.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Keep up with all the latest\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fintech.global\/category\/fintech-news\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">FinTech news here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright \u00a9 2023 FinTech Global<\/p>\n<div id=\"cp_popup_id_52219\" class=\"cp-popup-container cp-popup-live-wrap cp_style_52219 cp-module-before_after cpro-open \" data-style=\"cp_style_52219\" data-module-type=\"before_after\" data-class-id=\"52219\" data-styleslug=\"newsletter-subscription-beforeafter\">\n<div class=\"cp-popup-wrapper cp-manual cp-popup-inline  \">\n<div class=\"cp-popup  cpro-animate-container \">\n<form class=\"cpro-form\" method=\"post\">\n<div class=\"cp-popup-content cpro-active-step  cp-before_after    cp-middle  cp-panel-1\" data-overlay-click=\"1\" data-title=\"Newsletter Subscription \u2013 Before\/After\" data-module-type=\"before_after\" data-step=\"1\" data-width=\"690\" data-mobile-width=\"360\" data-height=\"200\" data-mobile-height=\"200\" data-mobile-break-pt=\"767\" data-popup-position=\"middle\" data-mobile-responsive=\"yes\">\n<div class=\"cpro-form-container\">\n<div id=\"cp_heading-2-52219\" class=\"cp-field-html-data cp-none cp_has_editor cp-animated\" data-type=\"cp_heading\">\n<div class=\"cp-rotate-wrap\">\n<div class=\"cp-target cp-field-element cp-heading tinymce\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recent survey by KPMG suggests only 1 in 4 companies feel highly confident in meeting ESG reporting requirements across several jurisdictions.
