The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in October 2025 published its Global Corporate Sustainability Report 2025 [1]. Corporate sustainability means integrating environmental and social considerations into a company’s strategy, operations and disclosure. According to the OECD, “it fosters sound governance and decision-making, while helping investors better understand a company’s long-term risks and opportunities.”
The 97-page document provides insights on how companies are implementing the sustainability-related recommendations of the G20/OECD Principles of Corporate Governance. These recommendations cover disclosure, shareholder-company dialogue, board responsibilities, and stakeholder engagement.
According to the report, 91% of all listed companies (by market cap) disclose sustainability-related information; and 81% of listed companies (by market cap) disclosing sustainability information receive third-party assurance. A quick overview of key figures and insights can be accessed here: Summary – Global Corporate Sustainability Report 2025 [2]
