Top-down ESG implementation worldwide

Statistics report on the top-down environmental, social, and corporate governance implementation worldwide

Top-down ESG implementation worldwide

This report begins by providing context on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) from a national viewpoint. Information is given on countries and regions which engage with ESG initiatives and to what extent they do so. Following a top-down approach, the report then explores the attitudes of organizations toward ESG and the level at which firms are engaged. Reaching the third layer of ESG implementation, the report then concludes by reviewing investors' attitudes towards ESG and the impact they wish to achieve through their investment choices.
