ESG scores and ratings: What they are, why they matter

ESG scores are the true north that guides boards and shareholders toward stronger environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. These scores are a key way third-party rating and reporting organizations measure companies' efforts.

Is a company failing to meet compliance obligations for environmental impact? Are diversity, equity or other governance issues putting the company at legal or reputational risk?

ESG scores and ratings are a quantitative way to answer these questions, eliminating the complexity of evaluating a company’s ESG activities.
