October 23, 2024 PR News

Strategic communications and advocacy group SEC Newgate has released its fourth annual ESG Monitor report.

The global agency, which has regional offices in Dubai and Riyadh, surveyed more than 14,300 people across 14 countries and territories, including the UAE, to gauge perceptions of environmental, social and governance issues.

Elena Gramatica, Founder and CEO of SEC Newgate Middle East, said: “Our annual ESG Monitor has shown that people have high expectations of organisations to behave responsibly on ESG matters, particularly in the UAE.

“Despite other pressing concerns of the public in their day to day lives, most still see environmental, social and governance issues as important to address – even if they don’t view these through a formal ‘ESG’ lens. This is both a communication and operational challenge for businesses and governments so there is still more work to be done when it comes to ESG.

“However, there is great optimism in the UAE with people having a comprehensive understanding of ESG and the positive role that the government is playing and supporting corporations to be more accountable.”
