How PwC and The Hashgraph Group help companies deploy technology for ESG excellence

The introduction of extensive sustainability reporting and sustainable supply chain regulations, and the need for further revision and alignment across regulations, standards and frameworks, has significantly raised the bar for companies striving to achieve coherent disclosure and transparency and built in risk for supply chain resilience. Organisations must now navigate a complex web of global standards and make sure that their reporting is accurate, comprehensive and aligned with stakeholder expectations.

Investors, customers, employees and communities are demanding greater accountability and action on ESG issues make sure upcoming sustainability transformation efforts (including decarbonisation, energy efficiency and resource management) succeed. This has prompted organisations to adopt more holistic and proactive approaches to sustainability, embedding ESG considerations into their culture, operations and strategic decision-making.

Advanced technologies including data analytics, digital platforms and blockchain need to be adopted to enable more robust measurement, monitoring and reporting of ESG performance. Technology provides deeper insights, improves data integrity and supports continuous improvement.

Organisations are dedicating significant resources to understanding and applying new regulatory requirements stemming from various new or revised regulations. This involves building internal expertise, updating policies and procedures, and ensuring reporting practices are aligned with evolving compliance requirements.

Companies are taking a holistic view of their value chains to assess potential regulatory, reputational, and operational risks, as well as seeking out opportunities for innovation, efficiency and positive impact. 

To meet demands for transparency and accountability, organisations are investing in robust systems for measuring, monitoring and reporting sustainability performance. Advanced data analytics and digital tools enable companies to track progress, identify areas for improvement and provide stakeholders with credible, data-backed insights into their ESG performance.
