“The ESG movement — Environmental, Social, and Governance — achieved the rare feat of moving from business schools and boardrooms into mainstream public and political discourse. What began as a technical framework for evaluating firm-level risk has, over time, evolved into a sweeping set of expectations about what corporations owe not only shareholders but also society at large. In that evolution, ESG has taken on meanings far beyond its original analytic purpose, becoming a vehicle for advancing broader social priorities through financial markets.” (05/04/26)
