ESG Disclosures and Reporting #881931

ESG stands for Environmental, Social, and Governance — a set of criteria used to assess a company's operations and long-term sustainability. These three pillars extend beyond traditional financial metrics, helping stakeholders understand how a company manages risks and opportunities related to environmental and social issues, as well as corporate governance practices.
Together, ESG considerations help paint a broader picture of a company's resilience, ethical conduct, and long-term strategic thinking.
The ESG concept has evolved from being a niche concern to a mainstream consideration in business strategy and capital allocation. What began as a way to incorporate ethical concerns into investing has transformed into a data-driven approach to evaluating long-term corporate viability.
As ESG has matured, it has shifted from values-based investing to value-based decision-making. Today, it’s not just about what a company stands for, but how it performs in areas that affect both stakeholders and shareholders.
