▼ + stars: | 2023-09-21 | by ( David Breg | ) www.wsj.com time to read: +6 min

The proportion of companies disclosing sustainability and ESG information was 63%, up from 56% last year. Breaking that down, a quarter of private companies don’t plan any ESG reporting, while only 7% of public companies felt the same. Six percent said they don’t yet report, but plan to, while another 7% don’t plan to. The picture looks quite different for private companies: 45% don’t report ESG information and more than half of those don’t plan to. The sustainability information respondents were most likely to publish was for employee diversity, equity and inclusion, at 47%.
