SASB’s ESG Integration Insights series provides practical examples of institutional investors using SASB standards to systematically and rigorously integrate ESG into their investment processes.

SASB standards have become a valued piece of market infrastructure used to evaluate ESG-related risk and identify ESG-related opportunities. The enclosed case studies, written by leaders at top investment companies, detail many of the ways in which these organizations use SASB standards, including to engage with companies, analyze performance, and inform investment decisions.
