Special Issue Information
\nDear Colleagues,<\/p>\n
On behalf of the editorial team of Risks (MDPI), I am pleased to invite you to contribute to a forthcoming Special Issue entitled \u201cESG and Business Risks.\u201d<\/p>\n
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations have rapidly evolved from voluntary corporate responsibility initiatives to core determinants of business strategy, financial performance, and risk exposure. Regulators, investors, rating agencies, and other stakeholders increasingly demand transparent ESG disclosure and robust risk management frameworks aligned with sustainability objectives. At the same time, firms face growing uncertainties related to climate change, social inequality, geopolitical instability, technological disruption, and evolving governance standards.<\/p>\n
These developments raise important questions about how ESG factors reshape traditional risk categories\u2014financial, operational, strategic, reputational, and systemic risks\u2014and how organizations, markets, and regulators respond. The integration of ESG into risk assessment models, capital allocation, enterprise risk management (ERM), and regulatory supervision represents a critical frontier for both scholars and practitioners.<\/p>\n
This Special Issue aims to advance rigorous academic debate and provide fresh theoretical, empirical, and methodological insights into the complex interplay between ESG and business risks. We welcome high-quality submissions employing diverse methodologies and perspectives on topics that address (but are not limited to) the following themes:<\/p>\n
We particularly encourage interdisciplinary contributions and studies offering novel datasets, innovative methodologies, or policy-relevant insights.<\/p>\n
