ESG+R, also referred to as ESGR or simply ESG, stands for Environmental, Social, Governance and Resilience. ESG+R refers to the evaluation of the impact of companies or investment funds in these areas. As consumers and investors become increasingly aware of environmental and social issues, ESG+R metrics become increasingly important in purchasing and investment decisions, motivating companies and investment funds to improve performance in these areas by developing programs to reduce environmental impact, improve sustainability and resilience, and demonstrate socially responsible business practices.
ESG criteria evaluate a company’s performance on environmental, social, and governance factors. This framework is increasingly used in investment and corporate strategies, particularly in industries like real estate and energy, where sustainability drives decision-making.
