Why do companies invest in sustainability policies?
More and more companies have been committing themselves to building a better future through sustainability policies; this measure brings benefits both for the environment and for businesses

The United Nations’ Global Compact, for instance, has 9,792 participating companies that are up-to-date with their commitments. People who invested in sustainable companies in the United States had nearly twice the returns of those who invested in regular companies, according to a Harvard University survey.
