Developments in the management of ESG issues
towards the impact on listed companies

This study aims to address the evolution of listed companies' environmental and social commitments over the last three years, highlighting the need to move from ESG management to business impact management.

To this end, the report has been structured as follows:

  • Firstly, there have been analysed the environmental and social commitments of 85 Spanish listed companiesincluding all IBEX 35 companies and another 50 companies listed on the continuous market, and their evolution with respect to 2020.
  • This was followed by a analysis of companies that measure and manage the social and environmental impact they generate so that they can serve as a reference for others.

The findings confirm the growing commitment of listed companies to ESG management compared to previous years and how they are migrating to business models that take into account the different stakeholders and the impact generated on them.
