Over 50% said having such a programme improved their performance.

After creating a formal environment, social, and governance (ESG) programme, six in 10 of businesses said they garnered higher profits in 2022, Vodafone Business showed in its latest study.

Its findings also showed that 50% of Singapore businesses said ESG improved their financial status, which is higher than APAC and global average with 40% and 37%, respectively.

More than four in 10 businesses said customers are more demanding in sustainability.
