ESG Essentials
As we delve into the key research factors shaping the ESG landscape, it becomes evident how Webintelligency's services align with these critical areas of focus.
Climate change and decarbonization
A 2023 report by PwC Australia revealed that 49% of ASX200 companies disclosed net-zero targets in FY22, marking a 13% increase from the previous year. However, the report also highlighted the significant work still required in developing transition plans and upskilling boards. Webintelligency's ethical analysis of public records provides companies with the insights needed to benchmark their performance and develop robust climate strategies.
Biodiversity and Natural Capital
As noted by Bolder Group, standards and guidelines for biodiversity reporting are rapidly evolving, prompting many organizations to take a proactive approach by participating in voluntary initiatives. This trend is exemplified by the increasing focus on deforestation policies across various industries.
MSCI ESG Research data shows that sectors such as food products, household products, and paper and forest products are leading the way, with over 40% of companies in these industries disclosing deforestation policies.
Webintelligency's comprehensive analysis of public records helps companies stay ahead of these trends, identifying emerging biodiversity risks and opportunities specific to their sector and operational locations.
Supply chain transparency and resilience
The COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical tensions have exposed vulnerabilities in global supply chains, making this area a top priority for many businesses. PwC Australia predicts a growing focus on supply chain sustainability, transparency, resilience, cybersecurity, and technological innovation. A pertinent example is the increasing scrutiny of Scope 3 emissions, which are often 11 times greater than operational emissions.

Webintelligency's ethical analysis of public records provides companies with the insights needed to address these complex supply chain challenges effectively.
Social dimension - human capital management
The post-pandemic scenario has heightened the need for work-life balance and transparency in labour practices. Bolder Group notes that investors, regulators, and the media are paying close attention to business activities related to ESG, including social factors. This trend is evident in the growing emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives, as well as the increasing importance of employee well-being and mental health programs.
Webintelligency's analysis of public records helps companies benchmark their social performance against industry leaders and identify areas for improvement.
The integration of ESG considerations in financial decision-making
Despite some backlash and increased scrutiny, particularly in the US, the trend towards ESG integration in investment strategies continues. As highlighted by Science Park of the Philippines, there has been a fundamental shift in how the financial sector gains investments, with a growing cohort of millennial investors prioritising sustainable investing.
Webintelligency's ethical analysis of public records assists companies in understanding the potential financial implications of their ESG strategies, helping them to align their sustainability goals with long-term financial performance.
