Crestchic ESG Survey
Stakeholder Environmental Social & Governance (‘ESG’) Survey
Crestchic is always keen to engage with its stakeholders and to understand their perspectives and concerns. However, we also understand your time is valuable, so we are only asking for a few minutes of it.

We are asking our employees, shareholders, customers and suppliers to complete a short survey to tell us which aspects of the ESG agenda are most important to you so we can ensure that our own priorities are aligned with those of our stakeholders.



What is ESG?

ESG is an acronym for Environmental, Social, and Governance. ESG takes the holistic view that sustainability extends beyond just environmental issues. ESG is a framework that helps stakeholders understand how an organisation is managing risks and opportunities related to environmental, social, and governance criteria. These stakeholders include not just the investment community but also customers, suppliers, and employees.

Environmental criteria refer to an organisation’s environmental impacts and risk management practices. These include direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions, stewardship over natural resources, and the firm’s overall resiliency against physical climate.

The social pillar refers to an organisation’s relationships with its stakeholders. Factors include human capital management, local community impact, and also an organisation’s own supply chain partners, particularly those in developing economies where environmental and labour standards may be less robust.

Governance refers to how a company is led and managed. ESG analysts will seek to better understand how leadership’s incentives are aligned to stakeholder expectations, how shareholder rights are viewed, and what types of internal controls exist to promote transparency and accountability by leadership.



As an incentive, for each participant who completes the survey, Crestchic will donate money to a charitable cause. Please consider the three options below and place a tick next to the one you would like us to donate to on your behalf.
