Frank Bold launches podcast discussing the latest developments in ESG, business & human rights and corporate reporting

"New podcast: Frankly Speaking about Responsible Business", 21 Sep 2022

We have launched ‘Frankly Speaking’ - a new podcast discussing the latest political, legal, and business developments in the field of ESG, business and human rights, and corporate reporting.

Frankly Speaking builds on our standing in the field of ESG research and engagement with policy makers as well as businesses. Our host Richard Howitt speaks frankly and personally about what moves policy makers, businesses, and activists to make responsible business the norm and - last but not least - redefine business! Richard is a pioneer in the field of corporate disclosure and a former member of the European Parliament.

“All who want to see purposeful companies actually make a difference to the social and environmental challenges which we all face, recognise that we will only be able to do so through dialogue, cooperation, ideas and innovation, better understanding of the challenges and by achieving an accountability for all of us, for the contribution we need to make. ‘Frankly Speaking’ hopes to be a forum for all of these. We hope you will join us,” says Richard.

You can look forward to a number of deep and personal conversations with leading experts from different fields. Here is a peek into the first ones:

  • with Wim Bartels, Senior Sustainability Partner at Deloitte and Member of the EFRAG’s Sustainability Reporting Board
