Executive Summary
Recent developments – such as rising anti-ESG sentiments from the newly elected Trump administration and potential changes to the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) – have left governance, risk and compliance (GRC) vendors uncertain about investing in ESG risk capabilities. While some US firms are rolling back ESG and sustainability policies and programmes, others continue to move forward. This report details the current state of play and outlines the long-term benefits of ESG risk in GRC platforms for reasons beyond regulatory compliance, encompassing uses for risk intelligence, climate risk readiness and reputational strategy. GRC vendors can use this report to understand current drivers in the market and inform ESG risk investment decisions.
