Environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) has become a widely discussed topic among corporations, investors, and consumers. ESG criteria are a set of standards for a company’s operations that socially conscious investors use to screen potential investments.

• Environmental criteria consider how a company performs as a steward of nature.
• Social criteria examine how it manages relationships with employees, suppliers, customers, and the communities where it operates.
• Governance deals with a company’s leadership, executive pay, audits, internal controls, and shareholder rights.

ESG is an increasingly popular tool used by investors.
