Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)
With sustainability gaining the public eye, the ESG development and evolution trajectory in India's corporate circles is going up by leaps and bounds. Capital markets (especially socially responsible investors) use ESG to assess organizations' high ESG scores and pinpoint their corporate financial interests, which are primarily focused on ethical and sustainable effects.
Including both private equity (PE) and venture capital (VC) funds, the number of ESG-focused funds has multiplied in India in recent years.
The growing dynamics of India's ESG ecosystem are driven by numerous factors that include:
- Investors, asset managers, regulators, and owners are aware of both the risks and opportunities presented by ESG.
- Central banks and governments start requiring ESG disclosures.
- The increasing importance of the 'S' in ESG post COVID-19.
- The emergence of climate-related lawsuits.
With ESG being the need of the hour, there has been a sharp increase in ESG career opportunities in India. According to a study released by Indeed, jobs in the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) industry grew by 468% in India over the last three years, from April 2019 to April 2022.
And, the problem is that there aren't enough hands, particularly those with the right talent necessary to meet the demand right now.
