GreenGuideLSW: Why ESG reporting will affect almost every company?

ESG reporting will affect most companies operating in Poland. Without it, a company may fail to get credit and lose an investor, customer or business partner. Read more in the latest edition of LSW's Green Guide, prepared by Aleksandra Polak.

Directly liable companies must report on environmental and social issues along the entire value chain: from the supply chain, through operations to the end of the product life cycle. To prepare the report, directly obliged companies will start to ask their suppliers and service providers about ESG indicators and, in the case of investment funds, the companies they want to invest in.

Without ESG, a company:

• may not get a loan,
• may lose an investor,
• may fail to attract a customer.

Good ESG indicators can translate into:

• more favourable credit terms,
• better valuation of the company,
• improved reputation among customers and business partners.
