Why is ESG Important?
There are many reasons why ESG is important for businesses today. Here are just a few:
-
- Investors are demanding more ESG information. A growing number of investors are incorporating ESG factors into their investment decisions. This is because they are increasingly aware of the risks and opportunities associated with climate change, social inequality, and other ESG issues.
-
- Customers are demanding more sustainable products and services. Consumers are becoming more conscious of the environmental and social impacts of the products and services they buy. This is driving demand for sustainable products and services from businesses.
-
- Employees are demanding more sustainable workplaces. Employees are increasingly looking for careers with companies that share their values and are committed to sustainability. This is creating a competitive advantage for businesses that are taking ESG seriously.
