The Necessity of Reporting on Sustainability
2

• The fact that sustainability is a long-term
  objective that will define the company model and
  move beyond the meagre current state of
  eco-friendly business leaders is widely
  acknowledged by investors. In research released
  by Accenture and the United Nations Global
  Compact (UNGC), 80 of C-level executives
  interviewed said they thought sustainability was
  a way to acquire a competitive edge in the
  current global economy. Reporting sustainability
  data has become essential for businesses to
  receive certifications and attract investors.
• Sustainability reporting is publicly disclosing
  an organization's environmental, social, and
  governance (ESG) performance. The necessity of
  sustainability reporting can be summarized as
  follows
• Accountability Sustainability reporting holds
  organizations accountable for their impact on the
  environment, society, and governance practices.
  It enables stakeholders to measure and evaluate
  an organization's ESG performance, which can help
  to build trust, credibility, and transparency.
• Risk Management Sustainability reporting helps
  organizations identify and manage risks related
  to ESG issues. It allows organizations to
  understand the impact of their operations on the
  environment and society, as well as the potential
  impact of external factors, such as climate
  change or social unrest. 
• Improved Performance Sustainability reporting
  can drive positive change within an organization.
  By monitoring and reporting on ESG metrics,
  organizations can identify areas for improvement
  and implement initiatives to reduce and improve
  their negative impact.
• Competitive Advantage Sustainability reporting
  can provide a competitive advantage. As
  sustainability becomes increasingly important to
  stakeholders, organizations that prioritize ESG
  performance and report on it transparently can
  differentiate themselves from their competitors
  and attract customers, investors, and employees
  who value sustainability.

• Stakeholder Engagement Sustainability reporting
  facilitates stakeholder engagement. By sharing
  information about an organization's ESG
  performance, stakeholders can better understand
  the organization's impact and provide feedback on
  how to improve.
• In summary, sustainability reporting is essential
  for organizations to demonstrate their commitment
  to ESG issues, improve their performance, manage
  risks, engage with stakeholders, and maintain
  their social license to operate.
