Many companies still see regulatory compliance in sustainability as a necessary evil. But the real cost isn’t in implementing sustainable measures, it’s in failing to do so. This mindset creates financial, reputational, and operational risks that can seriously compromise the viability of any industry.

The good news is that there’s another side to the coin: companies that integrate sustainability as a driver of efficiency and innovation are more competitive, resilient, and attractive.

1. Beyond green: sustainability as an economic driver

• The higher the carbon emissions, the lower the market valuation of European companies, meaning that emitting more not only pollutes—it also destroys economic value (ScienceDirect).

• The global economy loses up to USD 25 trillion a year by failing to address impacts on nature, climate, and health. In contrast, implementing integrated sustainable solutions could generate 395 million jobs by 2030 (FT).

2. The advantage of taking action

• According to IBM, companies with sustainable strategies have:

  • +16% revenue growth

  • +52% more likely to be profitable

  • 2x more operational savings

• Ignoring sustainability could lead to a 19% drop in global revenue by 2050 (Nature).

3. The consequences for those who don’t act

• The cost of non-compliance with regulations is a competitive disadvantage. In the EU, fines for this type of infringement have reached €1 billion annually (Institute of Sustainability Studies).
