Show Notes

China is on a globally unprecedented mission: to green its economy, to broadly increase quality of life for its citizens, and to create a sophisticated, fair and modern market for business. At the macro level, these goals would inspire increased confidence from most foreign executives seeking to trade and invest in this complex landscape – but what are the on-the-ground commercial implications for companies operating in these shifting tides?

CCBC and PwC China have co-authored a report which seeks to unravel that question through the lens of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) guidance for Canadian organizations in China. Tune in to the latest episode of The Bilateral with co-host Noah Fraser, Managing Director, China, CCBC for a discussion of the findings of this critical research with co-author Callum Douglas, Beijing-based director of ESG for China and APAC for PwC.
