Event Details

As governments, investors, consumers, employees, and other stakeholders are paying increasing attention to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues, companies aim to figure out how to contribute the development of society by conducting business activities with integrity and fairness. We are pleased to have Professor Ethan Rouen, the faculty co-chair of the Impact-Weighted Accounts Project at Harvard Business School, to share his insights on ESG transformation. He will mainly talk about the measurement challenges and disclosure of ESG-related issues, the design and implementation of impact-weighted accounts, as well as the puzzle of why firms are not disclosing more on human capital and other employment issues.


The ESG Webinar is one of the public events under AmCham China's Social Impact Initiative (SII) program. Please share it with anyone who would be interested in the topic.
