The sustainability report as mandated by UKSRS is usually developed by your sustainability teams and/or legal, compliance and financial teams.
We do not produce the report itself but we can advise on the communications ‘wrapper’ around the report, for example, the CEO’s cover note, how the report is communicated about in the press, and the aspects of the report to highlight in key conversations with stakeholders.

Caine Strategies is named after Caine Road on Hong Kong island, where our founder Harsha grew up.
Caine Road was named after William Caine, Chief Magistrate and the first head of the Hong Kong Police Force, and subsequently Colonial Secretary and acting Governor of Hong Kong in 1859.
The idea behind picking a name that connects to our founder’s roots is based in the belief that knowing who you are, what you stand for, and acknowledging your origin story is the most important thing before you share your story with the world through PR.
Caine Road was also situated on a hill midway towards the Peak, and was served by outdoor escalators connecting the Central business district to the Mid-Levels area. Our logo depicts these escalators as they represent the ease of growth and upwards travel once you have figured out how to design and execute PR and communications strategies tailored to your business.
