Participation in SAM’s annual Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) can not only lend credibility to companies’ sustainability efforts, but also spark value-adding internal discussions and outcomes.

• understand trends in sustainability management and transparency requirements
• inform the research process for their CR and annual reports
• obtain valuable information on new categories like impact evaluation or supply chain aspects
• identify gaps and take actions to develop their strategy and improve their operational performance
• benchmark themselves against peers who perform well on sustainability and transparency
