Abstract

Amidst the tides of globalization and sustainable development, the construct of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has evolved into an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) rating system. This research delves into the Yangtze River Delta, a pivotal engine of China’s economic landscape, to elucidate the intrinsic nexus between corporate ESG ratings and regional GDP augmentation. By employing a linear regression analysis on the dislocated datasets of corporate ESG ratings from 2019 to 2023 and corresponding economic metrics from 2018 to 2022, this study quantitatively assesses the potential influence of ESG ratings on regional GDP. The findings underscore a significant positive correlation between enhanced corporate ESG ratings and the economic growth of the Yangtze River Delta, highlighting the pivotal role of corporate ESG initiatives in regional economic prosperity within the context of global economic integration and sustainable development.
