doi:10.16381/j.cnki.issn1003-207x.2024.1775

Abstract

Abstract:

With the intensification of global economic， social and environmental challenges， ESG has gradually become the key to enhancing corporate reputation and supply chain competitiveness. However， the current academic research on ESG mostly focuses on single-point enterprises， and there are relatively few systematic studies on ESG at the supply chain level. In view of this， the existing research on ESG is reviewed at the enterprise level and the supply chain level. Secondly， the concept of supply chain ESG is defined based on the understanding of supply chain ESG by different organizations and institutions. Then， the research framework of supply chain ESG is constructed around five aspects： supply chain member behavior， supervision and compliance， information disclosure， driving mechanism and risk management. After that， the challenges faced by supply chain ESG are analyzed. Finally， it provides the future research direction of supply chain ESG from the perspectives of standardization and policy drive， competition and cooperation relationship， technology drive and innovation.

Key words: supply chain ESG, ESG information disclosure, ESG compliance, ESG challenge, ESG practice
