Reach Your ESG Goals with KPA
ESG has emerged as one of the most critical areas for effectively running an organization and attracting investment across the globe. What is ESG? Short for Environmental, Social, and Governance, ESG criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations that investors use to screen potential investments through a socially conscious lens.
And here’s what it’s not.
According to McKinsey, “The magnitude of investment flow suggests that ESG is much more than a fad or a feel-good exercise.”
KPA’s here to help by providing consulting, software, and training to align with your ESG mission.
5 Key Benefits of an ESG Program
Regulatory Compliance
Companies with established ESG targets signal to regulators that they’re putting good faith toward following regulatory guidelines.
Improved Efficiencies
ESG strategies find inefficiencies hiding across a company. Transparency can impact operating expenses across the org.
Employee Engagement
Strong ESG programs help attract and retain employees, enhance motivation by instilling a sense of purpose, and increase productivity.
Customer Loyalty
Customers want to be reassured that they’re supporting companies with a commitment to both their people and the environment.
Company Valuation
Having a focus on ESG demonstrates that a business is lower risk and has good practices, which increases valuation in the eyes of investors.
