  1. ESG: What Is Environmental, Social & Governance?

  2. Environmental, social, and governance issues are all entwined in every business, and with the current COVID-19 outbreak, ESG has gained support among investors, lawmakers, and other key stakeholders as a way to shield businesses against future risks. To understand why ESG is more important than ever for your firm, let's start with the basics: Environmental, or the 'E' in ESG, evaluates how a company's resource utilisation affects the environment, such as carbon footprint and waste water outflow, among other things. The way a corporation interacts with the community in which it operates is examined using social criteria. It also looks at internal labour policies, as well as diversity and inclusion rules. 'G' or Governance refers to internal policies and rules that aid in successful decision-making and legal compliance. ESG facilitates long-term top-line growth while also recruiting talent, lowering expenses, and increasing customer trust.

  3. How ESG Is Important? ESG is being utilised more and more to attract talent, target prospective customers, and improve brand development and innovation. Overall, ESG helps the organisation to be more resilient in the present and future. Let us break down ESG's major benefits in depth to see why it is more relevant now than ever: 1. Contributes to top-line growth Businesses that have a strong environmental, social, and governance (ESG) approach find it easier to enter new markets and expand their operations in existing ones. Governments facilitate access by giving licences and granting approvals to businesses. According to GreenPrint's Business of Sustainability Index[5], 75 percent of Millennials in the United States are willing to spend more for a product that is environmentally sustainable, and 77 percent of the entire sample size is concerned about the environmental impact of the things they buy.

  4. 2. Costs are reduced as a result of this Businesses that switch to more environmentally friendly production methods become more efficient and save money. Nestlé, for example, has stated that by 2025, it will invest up to USD 2.1 billion in moving away from virgin plastic packaging and developing other sustainable packaging solutions. This will not only lower its carbon footprint, but it will also save money in terms of non-compliance costs in the numerous regions where it operates, which have stricter plastic packaging rules.

  5. 3. Effective regulatory compliance and stakeholder management All businesses are subject to one or more forms of constraints, depending on the markets in which they operate. Strong ESG measures, particularly in governance, draw less regulatory scrutiny and give businesses more operational flexibility. Campaigners for climate change, labour unions, and others put less pressure on them. Customers also choose such brands. In 2017, Starbucks, for example, announced the "Starbucks China Parent Care Program," which covered over 10,000 Starbucks employees' parents in China. Starbucks sought to expand in China, which was seen as a strategic move in light of the escalating trade war between the United States and China.

  7. What Is ESG Strategy The ESG approach encompasses corporate reporting, asset management, finance, banking, insurance, investor relations, governance and compliance, human resources, ethics, procurement, supply chain management, and even product life cycle assessments. This is a lot of noise for any SME or organisation trying to run or expand. So, how do you decide what's important, or do you think you're too insignificant to notice? Our ESG strategy technology and academy can help you break through the noise and focus on your company's most pressing issues. We provide you with access to an academy that houses all of your ESG training, workshops, and education, as well as assistance in determining which reporting formats your organisation should investigate.
