U.S. companies' sustainability ratings rose in 2020, based on data from Refinitiv, as investors put more pressure on corporate boards to improve their environmental, social and governance (ESG) credentials and as authorities propose tougher disclosure rules.
Since the beginning of this year alone, we have been contacted by several U.S.-based companies asking for our input as they navigate through publishing their first sustainability reports.
