摘要
ESG作为一种新的投资理念和企业评价标准,从企业附加价值升级为决定企业生存的核心要件,从股东至上的治理理念转变为多元利益主体的治理理念,引导着公司治理范式与可持续发展的新方向,给现代公司治理带来了新的挑战。在ESG趋势下,需要对公司治理进行全面改造与重塑:在公司目的中引入ESG理念,使其成为指导公司运营与治理的根本准则;改造公司治理机构,对股东会和监督机构进行ESG赋能,在董事会层面创设ESG委员会;完善激励和约束机制,重塑董事承担ESG责任的义务体系,构建起全新的ESG公司治理机制。
Abstract
ESG, as an emerging investment philosophy and corporate evaluation criterion, has evolved from an added corporate value to a core determinant of corporate viability. It signifies a shift from a shareholder-centric governance model to a multi-stakeholder governance paradigm, guiding new directions for corporate governance paradigms and sustainable development, and bringing new challenges to modern corporate governance. Under the ESG trend, a comprehensive transformation and reshaping of corporate governance is required. Therefore, this paper suggests that firstly, ESG concepts should be integrated into the corporate purpose to make it a fundamental criterion guiding corporate operations and governance; secondly, corporate governance bodies should be reformed, shareholders and supervisory boards should be empowered with ESG capabilities, and an ESG committee at the board level should be established; and finally, incentive and restraint mechanisms should be improved, the obligation system governing directors’ assumption of ESG responsibilities should be reshaped, so that a brand-new ESG-driven corporate governance mechanism can be constructed.
