performance. Drawing on both theoretical perspectives and empirical evidence, it explores whether firms with higher ESG engagement
achieve superior financial outcomes compared to those with lower ESG practices. The analysis highlights how environmental responsibility,
social initiatives, and governance structures contribute to operational efficiency, risk management, and long-term profitability. Findings suggest that ESG-oriented strategies can enhance corporate reputation, attract investors, and foster sustainable growth, though the degree of impact may vary across industries and market conditions. This research provides valuable insights for both corporate managers and investors in
aligning sustainability goals with financial objectives.
