“if you cannot explain as a company what you are doing to make this a better world, you have no reason for being” – Former Unilever CEO Paul Polman quoted in Ogleby, 2016

The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, were adopted by the United Nations in 2015 as the 2030 Agenda, a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity.

Implication of all partners is essential to achieve a more sustainable economy, and the investment sector has developped the ESG system to evaluate the sustainable quality of businesses.

ESG definition
