L'Economia del Corriere della Sera, recently covered the key findings of SEC Newgate’s Global and Italian #ESGMonitor. The article highlights the growing importance of sustainability for global public opinion and stresses the need for companies to improve transparency and build trust with stakeholders on #ESG issues. Indeed, according to the report, even though 58% of people globally, and 55% in Italy, attribute #ESG issues to primary importance, many citizens also highlight significant shortcomings in how companies communicate the initiatives and actions taken to improve their performance from an Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) perspective.
