We’ve published the Business Sustainability Index annually since 2017. Two years later, we launched Index Online to provide a more granular view of what’s obviously a broad and highly diverse data set. The tool enables you to customize your data exploration, making it easy to break down data silos and share findings.

Summary Report coming soon

The 9th edition summary report, covering data through 2024, is coming later this year. The previous edition of the Business Sustainability Index summary report explores the trends and insights from the deep database of 125,000+ supplier sustainability ratings from 2019 through 2023.
