sustainability improvements are more than a matter of just \u201cdoing the right thing.\u201d They are also key to building customer loyalty, developing new revenue channels, and driving future growth. As a result, many companies around the globe no longer view corporate responsibility as a secondary issue but as a central business imperative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although all major financial services companies are touting their commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues, the few that can crack the code of achieving concrete success in the near term will capture an important competitive advantage in attracting customers, investors, and talented professionals. A critical first step will be adopting a more rigorous approach to ESG data that allows them to tap into more data, standardize and share data, and use AI and analytics to put that data to work internally and for customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Download our latest POV on equipping financial services for the ESG era to learn more about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How a focus on ESG can make companies more sustainable, responsible, and aligned to societal goals while also driving improved business performance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The three fundamental, data-driven issues that can hamper the effective management of ESG metrics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Building an end-to-end \u201cESG data supply chain\u201d that enables a repeatable, industrialized process for keeping ESG data relevant and current, and using it on an ongoing basis as an enterprise-wide
