Dein Update zur Digitalisierung der Versicherungsbranche. In dieser Folge des Digital Insurance Podcast spricht Jonas Piela mit Maria Patschke, CEO ESG Solutions bei SAP Fioneer. Das Carve-Out SAP Fioneer wurde vor zwei Jahren gegründet und weist rund 1000 Mitarbeiter über alle Kontinente hinweg auf. ESG-Reporting gewinnt für die Versicherungsbranche an Wichtigkeit. Das Ziel vonseiten des Gesetzgebers besteht darin, Anreize für mehr ökologische Nachhaltigkeit zu schaffen. Ein solches Instrument stellt CSRD dar. Der Nachfolger von NFRD stellt die in Europa vorherrschende Form der Regulierung dar, erklärt Maria. Im Moment sind davon circa 50.000 Unternehmen betroffen. Zwar müssen hier “harte KPIs” berechnet werden, wie Maria sagt, doch seien die Sanktionsmechanismen eingeschränkt. Aktuell gibt es schlimmstenfalls “negative Presse”, wenn sich ein Unternehmen nicht daran hält. Maria ist sich jedoch sicher, dass wir in Zukunft Verschärfungen vonseiten des europäischen Gesetzgebers sehen werden. Im weiteren Verlauf sprechen wir über Marias Zukunftsprognose, über die Rolle von Scope 1 und Scope 2 sowie über die Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung der eigenen Kapitalanlage.

Frank Zambrelli, Executive Director of Fordham University's Gabelli School of Business Responsible Business Coalition, discusses the school's recommendations for sustainability and transparency in the fashion industry. He explains findings in Accenture's recently released a report, Scaling ESG Solutions in Fashion, which identified seven areas of focus required for sustainable changes to the fashion industry. They include industry-wide adoption of transparent emissions reductions goals of 50% by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2040, use of renewable energy in manufacturing, elimination of the use of restricted chemicals, and fair labor practices across every step of the fashion supply chain in order to turn the industry into a sustainable one.Fashion may make us look and feel good but it does no favors for the planet, accounting for up to 8% of global greenhouse gas emission annually and providing many examples of egregious treatment of labor in low-income countries. Frank also explains the intentions behind New York Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand's Fashion Accountability and Building Real Institutional Change Act, or FABRIC Act, which the U.S. Senate is currently considering. It would require moving fashion production back to the U.S. under better environmental and labor standards than other countries enforce.

Jonathan Drew, Managing Director of ESG Solutions at Global Banking HSBC talks to Nigel Mattravers, Joint Venture Representative of Hong Kong-based New Life Plastics about the company's business plan to recover plastic and process it for reuse. Nigel explains how the fledgling business, operating out of Hong Kong's EcoPark, has identified a clear business case built upon an environmental need for its operations. With about 5m PET bottles thrown away in Hong Kong every day, mainly disposed of in landfill, the business has a clear supply chain and, with increasing regulation in the EU mandating the percentage of recycled plastic to be used in new products, there is also a growing market for the company's recycled outputs.
