Nearly nine out of ten companies view sustainability as a value creation opportunity, expected to drive benefits including higher profitability, revenue growth and improved cost of capital, according to a new survey released by Morgan Stanely, which also found that companies are becoming increasingly adept at quantifying the ROI of sustainability investments, enabling better comparisons to other capital allocation priorities.
For the report, “Sustainable Signals: Corporates 2025,” Morgan Stanley surveyed executives at more than 330 companies with revenues greater than $100 million across North America, Europe and APAC, and representing a broad range of industries.
