About the ES&G Forum
CBSR is holding its third annual ES&G Forum to explore changing investor expectations that are causing organizations to expand their performance measures and assessments beyond previous standard economic drivers to include non-financial considerations - social, environmental and governance (ESG) performance.

Building on the last two years' discussions, participants will hear how investors and businesses are implementing innovative methods to manage investor demand for ES&G information. There will also be an opportunity to explore with peers on what the future holds.

Date: September 23rd, 2014

Time: 8:30 am - 3:30 pm

Location: The Bow Tower, 500 Centre Street S.E., Calgary, AB, Canada
Why Attend?
The ES&G Forum 2014 has been structured to broaden the discussion on the viability of using ES&G as a key driver for people working in investor relations, institutional/retail investment funds, CSR, sustainability, business management, rating agencies, and academics who are researching or teaching this topic.

The session will include recent research, a case study, and investment practices that are relevant to the inter-linked topics of ES&G, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and Sustainability.

Calling All Investors and Employees
We invite you to participate in this brief 10-minute, anonymous study conducted by Haskayne School of Business Masters candidate Ariel Kangasniemi, in partnership with TransCanada corporation.

The study aims to gauge investor and employee attitudes towards the value of corporate social responsibility within the oil and gas pipeline and energy industry, and measure investor appetite for ES&G data and performance information.

Overall findings will be presented at our upcoming ES&G Forum in Calgary (September 23, 2014). Click here to begin
