SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMPANY: DIRECTIONS AND PROSPECTS OF RESEARCH
УДК 330.342.146
Abstract
The sustainable development agenda and the practice of its implementation are currently one of the most relevant areas of research work of domestic and foreign scientists. The purpose of the article is to systematize the existing areas of measuring sustainable development and substantiate the prospects for future research in this area. Based on the results of the study, seven main areas of existing research in the field of sustainable development were identified: ESG information, sustainable development factors, monitoring of environmental indicators, accounting for carbon emissions, methods for analyzing the company's sustainable development, non-financial reporting, safety and efficiency of implementing sustainable development. In addition, the proposed approaches to solving the identified problems are described and the prospects for future research are substantiated. The author's attention is focused on the need for unification and standardization of the formation and disclosure of ESG data by business entities, the importance of a systematic and holistic approach to studying sustainable development issues. The obtained ambiguous results of the implementation of the sustainable development agenda by companies of various types of activities, confirmed in empirical studies of scientists from different countries, require the development of a methodology for assessing the economic security of the company's sustainable development.
