The Climate Finance Pakistan team delivered an ESG Training & Capacity Building Workshop for Berger Paints Pakistan, designed to support the company in advancing its sustainability practices and aligning with emerging regulatory requirements.
With ESG disclosures now mandatory under SECP’s framework, businesses across Pakistan are under growing pressure to accurately measure, track, and transparently report their environmental, social, and governance impacts. This training helped bridge that gap, equipping participants with knowledge on integrating ESG principles not only for compliance with SECP regulations, but also as part of a long-term, value-driven sustainability strategy.
The session explored key themes including environmental and social disclosures, governance alignment, and the role of data in building trust with regulators, investors, and customers. Practical case discussions highlighted how companies in the paints and chemicals sector can strengthen resilience, reduce risks, and enhance competitiveness through ESG and sustainability integration. The team also made sure that the training incorporates regional comparisons and best examples to follow so that the company is aware of their future roadmap.
Participants also engaged in interactive exercises that demonstrated how ESG reporting frameworks can be applied in real-world contexts, fostering deeper understanding of challenges such as Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions, resource efficiency, and social responsibility practices.
At Climate Finance Pakistan, we remain committed to strengthening corporate capacity on ESG, enabling organisations to adopt practical solutions for sustainability reporting and climate alignment. By embedding ESG into strategy and decision making, businesses like Berger Paints are not only meeting SECP’s compliance needs, but also paving the way for a greener, more resilient Pakistan.
