Abstract
Besides financial indicators, investors started to utilize sustainability performances of companies in their decision making. With this awareness and trend, the number of ESG data providers increased in the last decade after the global recession. This chapter compares mainstream ESG providers with an emphasis on how they cover, provide, analyze, and disseminate these ratings that are invaluable for investors. The impact of sustainable supply chain practices on the ESG indicators and its consequent effect on the investor is also discussed. This study compares the issues and indicators covered by major ESG providers, and link them to sustainable supply chain measures. The synergetic and symbiotic relationship between responsible investment and sustainable supply chain management is called to attention.
