What does G stand for in ESG?
Responsible governance is one of the most important pillars within the ESG policy. It implies transparency of the company’s operations, and accountability towards staff, investors and counterparties.
Ethical treatment of employees, comfortable and safe working conditions, and an officially paid salary are important aspects of corporate governance. Operational transparency, regular ESG reporting, disclosures on ESG performance, and anti-corruption measures are essential for partners and investors. Good corporate governance increases investor confidence and reduces the risk probability for all stakeholders of the company.
