ABC’s of ESG

Reporting frameworks and standards are key tools for identifying and evaluating ESG performance. They help companies understand, measure, and communicate their exposure to ESG risks and opportunities, while also promoting transparency with investors and engaging stakeholders. Take a deeper dive into each area of the ESG metrics:

Environmental

Metrics related to resource and energy use, waste, and other physical environmental issues. Examining environmental metrics helps companies assess key risks and opportunities, including potential areas for reputational damage. Common measures include emissions, water and energy consumption, and waste management.

Social

Metrics related to social concerns such as worker rights and safety, as well as customer privacy. Company disclosure on these metrics helps stakeholders gauge the contributions, and potential areas of risk, related to workers, consumers, and communities.

Governance

Metrics related to a company’s ethics, policies and procedures. Common measures include board composition, transparency on management issues, and systemic risk management.
