ESG and Financial Performance: Bain - EcoVadis Joint Study

April 17, 2023

Wouldn’t you like to know how ESG strategies can unlock financial potential – for you and your value chain partners?

A joint study from Bain & Company and EcoVadis, “Do ESG Efforts Create Value?”, analyzes how ESG activities and outcomes from thousands of companies’ EcoVadis Scorecards align to their financial performance. The study finds powerful correlations between advanced performance on key sustainability topics and stronger profitability, faster growth rates, or both.

Of the 150,000 companies rated in the EcoVadis Network about 20% are large multi-national enterprises, and 80% are SMEs and/or private companies. Most are engaged in via supply chain relationships, but also through Private Equity investors. This study has strong implications for procurement and investment teams alike: In addition to mitigating risk and complying with due diligence regulations, using ratings in sustainable procurement programs may be a vital lever in building financial success, as well as resilience of their value chain, and their trading partners.

It emphasizes the benefits of ESG action -- from environmental and carbon performance, to labor/worker practices, to sustainable procurement (how well companies manage ESG factors in their supply chain) -- and why both procurement and private equity firms should factor ESG into their approach.  

Learn about game-changing insights on how companies who leverage a solid ESG risk management foundation to go farther, may have higher probability financial success. From developing sustainable supply chains, renewable energy usage, employee satisfaction and DEI, this study offers enticing clues for how companies may be unlocking value creation through ESG.
