Sustainable investing has gone mainstream, now representing one out of every three dollars under professional management—and counting. The integration of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into investment decision-making is no longer niche or “nice to have.” For large, global asset owners and managers, it’s table stakes. In the wake of this trend, the number of companies using SASB Standards to disclose sustainability information to investors has increased more than 4X since the start of 2020. Today, 40% of Global S&P 1200 companies use SASB Standards in core communications with investors.
