ESG Strategy

An ESG Strategy is a plan to integrate sustainable and responsible practices into business processes to address environmental, social and governance challenges. The goal is to create long-term value, manage ESG risks and meet the expectations of investors, customers and other stakeholders.

The main components of an ESG Strategy are:

1. Materiality Assessment: identify and assess the ESG issues that are most relevant to the company and its stakeholders: this assessment allows you to focus on priorities and allocate resources effectively.

2. Setting ESG Objectives and Targets: set measurable goals, such as reducing CO₂ emissions, improving diversity and inclusion, or strengthening anti-corruption policies; clear objectives allow you to measure progress over time.

3. Action Plans: develop operational plans detailing the measures to be taken to achieve ESG goals, such as adopting renewable energy, promoting employee well-being and implementing responsible procurement practices.

4. Governance and Accountability: establish governance structures to oversee ESG strategy, assigning clear responsibilities at board level and to specific corporate roles; strong governance is essential for effectiveness and transparency.

5. Monitoring and Reporting: monitor and report progress transparently through standardized KPIs and periodic reports, as required by regulations (e.g. CSRD in Europe); reporting allows stakeholders to evaluate the company's ESG results.

6. Stakeholder Engagement: maintain an active dialogue with stakeholders to understand their expectations and respond effectively. Stakeholder engagement helps improve strategy and build trust in the company.
