ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL
AND GOVERNANCE (ESG)

WHAT IS ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE (ESG) ?

Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) represents the three core dimensions used to evaluate an organization’s ethical conduct, sustainability performance, and overall risk management. ESG has emerged as a vital framework for investors, regulators, customers, and other stakeholders who seek insights beyond financial results, focusing on long-term value creation, resilience, and positive societal impact.

  • Environmental aspects focus on how an organization interacts with the natural world — including carbon emissions, energy consumption, waste management, and resource use.
  • Social covers how a company manages its relationships with employees, customers, communities, and its supply chain — focusing on areas such as labor practices, diversity, equity, and human rights.
  • Governance includes transparency, board structure, ethical conduct, anti-corruption, compliance, and risk oversight.

From an assurance standpoint ESG goes beyond voluntary disclosure and aspirational commitments. It demands rigorous, evidence-based, independently verified reporting to establish credibility and stakeholder confidence. Accurate ESG data and disclosures enable organizations to meet increasing regulatory requirements, respond to investor due diligence, and benchmark performance against recognized standards.
