Following another year of increasing focus on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations by companies, investors, and regulators alike, ESG appears to have cemented its position in the corporate landscape.
We know most companies today are making serious ESG investments. But to what extent is the C-Suite really updating shareholders on sustainability topics? Which industries are discussing ESG, and more importantly, which ones are staying silent?
In this report, we analyze and break down earnings transcripts from 2023 that are driving ESG in 2024 and beyond:
- The ESG topics that are top-of-mind for C-Suite and which have been surprisingly deprioritized
- How sustainability compares to other business topics like ethics and cybersecurity
- Which industries are most committed to ESG and which are not
- Key trends to watch like mandatory regulatory uptakes, M&A deal cycles, and artificial intelligence.
