7 Why IRRC Institute Funded This Research IRRC Institute s mission statement is to provide thought leadership at the intersection of corporate responsibility and the informational needs of investors. Academic and practitioner Includes capital market issues Information silos are both barriers to understanding and opportunities Study compares corporate management and investor perspectives Why same, why different What drives viewpoints Everyone wants lower risk/higher value, so why the differences? Survey fatigue vs. opacity Identify possible opportunities for greater clarity and convergence 7
8 About NAEM s Green Metrics That Matter Research Background: Companies receiving a growing number of external requests for ESG information with corresponding burden on staff. Questions about the materiality of questions, the use of the data, and the analytical methods within ESG researcher community. Understanding the business case for dedicating staff time to respond and develop a business strategy. Objectives: To understand how companies track ESG metrics internally, and identify the key EHS and sustainability performance indicators reported to the corporate C-Suite. To document how companies are responding to external requests for ESG data determine as well as how they use & value of that data. To establish an empirical foundation for identifying a core set of metrics that will be predictive of strong EHS and sustainability performance. 8
9 NAEM Green Metrics That Matter: Key Learnings Research Participants: 75 leadership-oriented, large- to mid-cap companies ( ) Highlights: Leading Companies are taking ESG issues seriously. Inside a company, metrics serve for a variety of purposes. Companies are committing significant resources to external reporting. The business benefits of external reporting have not yet been fully realized, but customer relationships are driving external reporting. Greater transparency needed about the requesting entity, the purpose of the requested data and its relevancy. Key Insights: NAEM s Green Metrics that Matter survey is the first, most detailed look at how companies report and track EHS/ESG metrics. Companies are interested in advancing this field and dialoguing with stakeholders in a mutually respectful way. 9
10 Major Study Findings Agreement on key corporate sustainability issues, but not on - Metrics - Purposes served Risk mitigation perspective, not value creation Greater clarity, better communication needed 10

14 Comparing the Two Perspectives- Different Needs, Different Metrics ESG Research Evaluation of management quality and financial risk Materiality and values Qualitative assessment of firms based upon Hard data Normative evaluations of trustworthiness Both art and science Data in several different forms valued Enables evaluation from several different angles 14
15 Comparing the Two Perspectives- Different Needs, Different Metrics Differences arise because Some issues change infrequently (e.g., corporate policies) Different granularity (e.g., global versus product- or location-specific information) Company interest in engagement (e.g., host communities, potential employees) Different preferred/useable data format or units (rather than scope) 15

21 Risk Management and Reduction ESG Researchers Researchers evaluate business potential by evaluating management ESG issues are often a lens for evaluating management Data on direct linkage between sustainability and firm value not requested of companies(or proactively provided by companies) Value creation for investors is at the portfolio level, not only at the company level. This puts investors and ESG researchers in a very different seat than companies on this question. 21
22 What s the Match in Supply and Demand for ESG Data? Exhibit 11 Number of Annual External Requests for EHS/ESG Information (Q Data) 12 Number of Respondents None 5 or fewer More than 50 22

26 Implications More clarity (transparency) needed on relationship(s) between ESG management, performance improvements, corporate financial performance How closely does disclosure reflect ESG management quality and performance? - Additional research required Many reasonable questions appropriate to improve ESG evaluation and management Greater dialog, information sharing, and perspectives essential 26
