ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance. It is a framework that investors, banks and customers use to assess how responsibly and resiliently a company is run.

What does an ESG report cover?

  • Environmental: climate data, energy and resource use, water and waste
  • Social: health and safety, diversity and supplier relations
  • Governance: risk management, business ethics and governance structure

ESG, carbon accounting and CSRD

Carbon accounting provides environmental data for ESG, but ESG is much broader. CSRD is the EU legal framework that makes part of ESG reporting mandatory for the largest companies and sets out how it must be documented.

Why does ESG data matter?

  • Access to financing and better dialogue with banks
  • Answers to customer requirements and tenders
  • A clear view of risks and opportunities for management
  • Documented progress over time
