Introduction
Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics enable stakeholders to better understand a company’s risks, opportunities, and performance. When building an ESG strategy, identifying material ESG indicators will be the backbone of any company’s ESG journey and narrative. Tracking and reporting on these material metrics can help create internal alignment on data, set data-informed targets, and demonstrate progress toward achieving sustainability goals.
