The SASB launched the SASB Implementation Primer, an online resource for companies seeking to incorporate SASB standards into their core communications with investors.
SASB’s industry specific standards are designed to provide investors with decision-useful performance metrics on the subset of sustainability issues most closely linked with a company’s ability to create long-term shareholder value. “Investors tell us they are interested in sustainability issues, but they struggle to find data that is comparable, consistent, and reliable,” said SASB Foundation CEO Janine Guillot. “Meanwhile, corporate professionals tell us they are pulled in many different directions by specialized requests for sustainability data. This guidance is intended to benefit both groups by facilitating disclosure on the subset of sustainability issues that matter most to long-term financial performance in a particular industry.” The Primer provides practical guidance to companies on key steps in the SASB implementation process, helping them select the appropriate industry standards for their organization and effectively embed key environmental, social, and governance (ESG) topics and metrics into their core communications to investors.
