Show Notes
On May 24 in New York, the AICPA and CPA.com hosted the inaugural ESG Symposium, bringing together a group of accounting leaders, investors, standard setters, and others to exchange ideas and perspectives on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues.
One presenter and a leader in the ESG field is Ami Beers, CPA, CGMA, senior director–Assurance and Advisory Innovation at the AICPA.
In the episode, Beers explains the reasons for increased focus on ESG, what she took away from the symposium, and what's coming next. She mentions several resources that can be found online. One good place to start is the AICPA's ESG-focused resource page.
