The evolution of, and attention to, sustainability and ESG matters have increased in recent years. Regulations and expectations have substantially broadened and deepened, not least because of the challenges associated with climate change and biodiversity loss which the world faces.
Having appropriate governance in place to deliver on our sustainability commitments is more important than ever before. This is why we believe effective oversight and management of sustainability-related risks and opportunities are essential to BAT’s ability to deliver A Better Tomorrow™ and achieve long-term sustainable growth.
