Description:

This report presents the assessment of SV 99 in 2023 through three interrelated and progressively hierarchical sections. The “Hindsight” section provides an overall view of the SV 99 ratings in 2023, outlining the demographic profile of the SV 99 firms and their market distribution characteristics. The “Insight” section delves into the sustainable development value created by SV 99 from economic, social, and environmental dimensions. Building on the data analysis from the previous two sections, the “Foresight” section envisions a broad landscape where the integration of sustainable and commercial values drives high-quality development for firms. The findings reveal that in 2023, the sustainable development value score of SV 99 has upturned, with a significant promotion in the dimension of transformative power of sustainable development, particularly in terms of environmental contributions. SV 99 plays a crucial role in national economic development and industrial transformation and upgrade. SV 99 focuses more on creating value for diverse stakeholders and supports national strategic initiatives such as rural revitalization and the carbon neutral goal through various means. Against the backdrop of global consensus and norm evolution, technological innovation and industrial transformation, and green manufacturing and the cultivation of new advantages, the integration of sustainable and commercial values in businesses presents significant opportunities.
