ESG practice and recommendations for Vietnamese enterprises
Published: July 28, 2026
Abstract
In this study, desk research methods and secondary data were used to analyze Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices at businesses. This study also presented an overview of ESG measurement indicators and the factors affecting ESG practices based on experiments. The study’s findings revealed that Vietnamese businesses tend to pay more attention to the governance aspect than the environmental and social aspects. In addition, business ethics are influenced by ESG, and it is necessary for businesses to pay attention to economic aspects in order to successfully conduct ESG practices.
