“ESG” refers to a set of criteria used to measure a company’s non-financial ethical and sustainability practices.
Investors, regulators and consumers are scrutinizing to varying degrees how companies manage environmental responsibilities, treat their own workforce and communities affected by their value chain, and govern their operations. As organizations embrace ESG principles and respond to ESG-driven legal obligations, they also face new challenges in internal investigations—challenges that demand innovative thinking, agile processes and a forward-looking mindset.
As ESG factors expand in the regulatory landscape, companies are increasingly considering how their internal investigations may need to address risks that were once considered peripheral but are now central to corporate strategy.
