Striving towards a green treasury: integrating ESG into cash and liquidity management

While Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) has always been on many treasurers’ wish lists in their cash and liquidity management strategies, the pandemic has pushed its importance into the background.

Today, however, there are strong signs that it is firmly back on the agenda for many companies, which are now keen to pursue sustainable outcomes, galvanised not only by their corporate boardrooms but also company stakeholders.

The analysis in this report is compiled using responses to a global survey of corporate treasurers conducted between November 2021 and January 2022. The survey was carried out by The Global Treasurer in partnership with Aviva Investors to assess what organisations require from asset managers to assist with their day-to-day cash and liquidity management, and the importance of ESG issues within their treasury management and investment strategies.
