Mauritius National Budget - A sustainability prelude from PwC
As we near the next Budget Speech by the Hon. Minister of Finance, Economic Planning and Development, our community of solvers at PwC are heedful. At a time when the world is being re-invented and where governments, businesses and communities are accelerating the movement to live, work and give back differently, we think that the Mauritius National Budget has the potential to reshape our nation for the next generation.

Time to get serious about the realities of climate risk
The 2018 World Risk Report ranked Mauritius 16th among the highest disaster risk countries out of 172 countries. Some beaches receding by more than 10 metres in a single decade, a pandemic cutting off revenue streams from tourism for two years (24.3% of Mauritius's GDP in 2019), and weather hazards like Cyclone Gelena that displaced 259 persons in Rodrigues (February 2019), Mauritius is, slowly but surely, experiencing the dire impact of climate change.
This article reveals how CEOs around the world recognise the dangers of our changing climate, but most fail to make the desired change in their business strategy and operation. It’s the choice of the business leaders in Mauritius to decide which side of the aisle they would like to see themselves standing.
Guidelines on Climate-related and Environmental Financial Risk Management
At PwC, we believe that sustainability and climate change should be at the heart of every business. The effects of climate change and the transition to a low carbon economy are already having a significant impact on the financial services sector.
What is ESG reporting and why does it matter today?
We’re at a turning point. Financial factors are no longer viewed as the pre-eminent drivers of value, and sustainability has become strategic - a board and CEO level issue. To succeed, businesses have to respond to important issues facing the world today.

Companies are facing new pressure to measure, disclose and improve on ESG-related issues across three clear categories:
Environmental: carbon emissions, water and waste management, raw material sourcing, climate change vulnerability
Social: diversity, equity and inclusion, labor management, data privacy and security, community relations
Governance: board governance, business ethics, intellectual property protection
