Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance
Environmental, Social, and Corporate Governance (ESG) is a set of criteria embedded into the strategy of an organisation to be used by investors, lenders, and other stakeholders to assess the environmental, social, corporate, and governance practices of companies. ESG factors can include climate change risks, working conditions, diversity and inclusion, and shareholder rights. Integrating ESG considerations into investment and decision-making processes can help to identify potential risks and opportunities, promote sustainable business practices, and drive long-term value creation.
