Survey results from January revealed that most businesspeople have a positive view of the ESG-related initiatives being conducted or planned by their companies.
Analysis of the current state of corporate initiatives in ESG investment and how they are associated with the business performance of companies was performed using survey data from January 2021.
The survey asked respondents whether the companies they manage or work for will promote corporate initiatives for ESG investment in the future. Those who answered either “We are already working on the initiative and it will progress” or “We plan to work on the initiative and it will progress” accounted for approximately 50% of the respondents. They can be seen as comprising a “positive group” that is aggressively working on ESG-related issues.
