Industry Stats and Thought Leadership on ESG in DataWave

Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles are reshaping how businesses define success. No longer confined to annual reports or CSR statements, ESG has become a strategic driver for growth, risk management, and stakeholder engagement. At DataWave, we believe in moving beyond compliance—and leading with insight, innovation, and measurable impact.

The ESG Landscape by the Numbers

Global trends show that ESG performance is not just good ethics—it’s good business:

  • 88% of investors say ESG performance is now a key factor in investment decisions. (PwC, 2023)
  • More than 90% of S&P 500 companies now publish ESG or sustainability reports. (Governance & Accountability Institute, 2023)
  • Companies with strong ESG practices have up to 20% lower cost of capital and improved brand reputation. (McKinsey, 2022)
  • 76% of consumers are more likely to buy from brands that commit to sustainability. (IBM, 2023)

These figures reflect a global pivot. ESG is no longer a “nice to have.” It’s a boardroom priority—and a marketplace differentiator.
