Sustainability and ESG reporting is becoming commonplace among medium and large companies, as well as non-profit organizations. The ultimate goal of ESG, which is the acronym used to describe environmental, social and governance externalities, is to provide transparent, holistic and non-financial information to stakeholders with the expectation that positive and measurable social and environmental impacts will result.
