Abstract

With the occurrence of some natural disasters, people have gradually realized the importance of coexistence between humans and ecology, and the topic of green development has also attracted people’s attention. Therefore, the ESG concept has gradually emerged. Based on current research findings, this article finds a close correlation between the development of enterprises and their ESG performance. This study mainly focuses on three aspects to explain the positive impact of ESG on enterprises, namely the impact of ESG on relevant investors, the impact of ESG on enterprise risk events, and the impact of ESG on enterprise value. Secondly, two limitations of ESG performance are listed to summarize the close relationship between ESG and enterprise development. Through this study, the author found that better ESG performance of enterprises is more likely to win the favor of investors, that is, ESG performance is directly proportional to investor income. Secondly, good ESG also reflects to a certain extent the ability of enterprises to resist risk events. Finally, concerning the inquiry of whether company value is directly impacted by ESG performance, research has yielded two completely opposite answers, so further exploration is needed for this conclusion. The conclusions of this study can provide some ideas for relevant researchers and offer some reference value for the development of enterprises.
