Analysis on the evolution of the ESG concept

Is it time to add a fourth dimension to ESG?

We’ve seen how Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles have reshaped the way we invest, lead, and innovate. But as the world becomes more complex and interconnected, should we add another dimension to ESG?

One alternative could bel: ESG+P, where "P" stands for Purpose.

Purpose goes beyond compliance and sustainability. It captures the why behind a company's existence, the impact it aims to create, and the values it embodies. In an age of rising climate anxiety, social distrust, and corporate greenwashing, purpose serves as a moral and strategic compass.

Purpose is what drives companies to:

- Lead systemic change, not just mitigate harm

- Collaborate with unlikely partners for greater good

- Stay resilient through crises by aligning profits with principles

Adding "P" wouldn't dilute ESG, it amplifies it. It reminds us that ESG isn’t a checkbox, but a mindset.

What do you think? Or would you propose a different fourth dimension?
