The adoption of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) standards is relevant not only because investors are more inclined to consider them in their investment decisions but also due to their potential positive impact on sustainable development. While ESG implementation is still mostly voluntary, governments around the world are increasingly integrating these standards into their legal frameworks. Thus, understanding how the law supports ESG adoption becomes essential. However, the law alone is not sufficient to ensure that companies apply these standards. Investment is also needed to guarantee that the impact of ESG practices is long-lasting. In this paper we present our findings on how legal frameworks of 10 countries support ESG standards implementation, and what funding alternatives are available, particularly to small and medium enterprises (SMEs).

La adopción de estándares Ambientales, Sociales y de Gobernanza (ASG, o ESG por sus siglas en inglés) es relevante no solo porque los inversionistas están más inclinados a considerarlos en sus decisiones de inversión, sino también debido a su potencial impacto positivo en el desarrollo sostenible, por medio de las Pequeñas Empresas en Crecimiento (PEC). Si bien la implementación de los criterios ASG es todavía mayoritariamente voluntaria, los gobiernos de todo el mundo están integrando cada vez más estos estándares en sus marcos legales. Por lo tanto, comprender cómo la ley apoya la adopción de los criterios ASG se vuelve esencial. Sin embargo, la ley por sí sola no es suficiente para asegurar que las empresas apliquen estos estándares. También se necesita inversión para garantizar que el impacto de las prácticas ASG sea duradero. En este documento presentamos nuestros hallazgos sobre cómo los marcos legales de 10 países apoyan la implementación de estándares ASG, y qué alternativas de financiamiento están disponibles, particularmente para las pequeñas y medianas empresas (PyMEs).
