Established in 2021/22, the Research Centre for ESG (CESG) was created to facilitate academic research, conduct knowledge transfer, and educate the society about ESG and business sustainability. Currently, a significant portion of the research of the Centre is funded by the Institutional Development Scheme of the Research Grants Council (RGC) of Hong Kong. The four research components are: (1) Incorporating social returns into the ESG integration process, (2) Improving KPIs of ESG reporting for listed firms, (3) Measuring consumer satisfaction on ESG performance, and (4) Enhancing the effectiveness of strategic corporate communication on ESG effort for listed firms.
