APAC firms lead the way with Chief Sustainability Officer appointments
Among recent high-profile Chief Sustainability Officer appointments in the region, Singaporean bank OCBC named Mike Ng its first group CSO last July.
Companies in Asia Pacific are twice as likely to have a Chief Sustainability Officer than those in Europe and North America, research by recruitment firm Boyden shows.
In a survey of 1,000 executives worldwide, the company found that 29% of Asia Pacific firms have a Chief Sustainability Officer, compared to 12% in Europe and 11% in North America.
