Situation

Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives has become an important measurement to report on for businesses.

With regulations around ESG increasing on a global scale and studies correlating good ESG practices to increased revenue growth, ESG performance has become a key factor when selecting who to do business with. A recent study shows that over 30% of companies are already incorporating ESG controls into their supplier and vendor evaluation and selection processes1 That number is expected to grow rapidly over the next 5 years.
