‘Zimbabwe could lose export markets’

It comes as regulators around the world are shifting ESG principles from a moral responsibility to a mandatory legal requirement.
ESG covers the major aspects of socially-responsible investments, and it is a framework for assessing the impact of the sustainability and ethical practices of an organisation.
