Message of the Managing Partner Panos Valantassis
The Connection between Governance and Sustainable Development
Companies and organizations recognizing the impact of their activities on the environment and the society, are showing increased interest in Sustainability. This is vital for their survival and for their long-term continuation of the business activities.
Governance, is a crucial factor for both businesses (public and private) and various aspects of day-to-day operations. When practiced correctly, Governance inspires trust and provides assurance to both internal and external stakeholders, that leaders and managers are applying principles appropriately and are working towards the best interest of all.
The relationship between Governance and Sustainability is mutually supportive, with one reinforcing and complementing the other in areas such as alignment of the interests of various stakeholders, transparent decision-making, accountability and ethical behavior, long-term value creation, reputation, and stakeholder trust.
The integration of Governance and Sustainability offers multiple benefits to companies and society at large, including improved Risk Management and organizational performance, attracting investors and capital and making a positive social impact.
It is precisely the perspective of improved Risk Management, i.e. of reducing the impact and likelihood of risks by taking appropriate preventive measures, that Aegean Experts are specialized in.
This is achieved through our long collective experience in the appropriate use of International Standards (for reporting and assurance alike), Management Models and Global Best Practices.
In conclusion, it is our strong belief and hence it is our motto that Sustainability and Governance go together, hand in hand.
