2022 U21/PwC Innovation Challenge Prompt
To what extent should governments support the private sector in managing and prioritizing their Environmental, Societal and Governance (ESG) agenda? PwC’s Annual CEO Survey reported that, despite rising interest in the Environmental, Societal and Governance agenda, strategy is still primarily driven by business metrics. From your own point of view, address the extent to which you think governments should support the private sector in this way, and what form you think the support should take. |
