Broadly , ESG can be defined as the examination of a company ’ s environmental , social , and governance practices , their impacts , and the company ’ s progress against benchmarks . In capital markets , any party may rely on information about a company ’ s ESG efforts , including ESG ratings , for investment decision-making .

WHAT IS ESG

An ESG rating and the data used to calculate it provide investors and executives with a method of evaluating a company ’ s track record . The information is also used by investors to assess a firm ’ s risk exposures as well as its possible future financial performance .
Trainer : Matthias Gelber ( GreenMan )
