9 Phl firms recognized for leading sustainable business

Top 250 for sustainability New initiative to unblock $5.4 trillion ESG Investment Gap into Emerging Markets identifies Filipino leadership in sustainable business

The Future Investment Initiative (FII) Institute, a global non-profit foundation dedicated to tackling global challenges, is this week hosting an investor summit in Hong Kong.

As part of its programme of activities the FII Institute has released an “Inclusive ESG Tool” to help companies in emerging markets improve sustainability and help global investors identify current and future performance leaders.

Despite a global surge in sustainable investments over recent years, emerging markets receive less than 10 percent of ESG capital flows worldwide, even though they account for 58 percent of global GDP.

The publicly available online tool has been developed with data provider ESG Book to for investors to analyse ESG performance and make better investment decisions.

Addressing data gaps in emerging market analysis, the Inclusive ESG Score identifies companies that prioritize ESG factors while fostering long-term sustainable growth.

The new tool has the potential to help reduce the USD $5.4 trillion ESG investment gap in emerging markets, of which $4.6 trillion could be released across Asia.

The list of top performing companies has been published on the ESG Book’s website: https://ift.tt/qpcJTlE
