Entries are now open for the Finance for the Future Awards, which reward financial leadership in sustainability in a business or organisation.

The Awards – which are being organised by The Prince of Wale’s Accounting for Sustainability Project (A4S), NatWest and ICAEW – aim to be distinct from similar awards schemes, which mainly focus on green issues, environmental and corporate responsibility.

Entrants for the awards must be able to demonstrate how they have allocated financial capital effectively to create long-term value, with a business case outlining why the investment was worthwhile and what corporate behaviours are driving the value creation.

For more information about the categories and criteria, and to submit applications, visit the Finance for the Future Awards website. Deadline for entries is Friday 3 February.
