The book focuses on governance issues, through the lens of political connections in corporate Europe. Sustainability in corporate contexts increasingly hinges on the quality of governance--the G in ESG--which serves as the backbone for how firms integrate environmental (E), social (S), and economic sustainability objectives into their strategies and operations. Effective governance frameworks are essential not only for ensuring compliance and accountability, but also for aligning long-term value creation with broader societal and environmental goals. Political connections are a key factor influencing governance structures and decision-making processes, shaping how firms address challenges such as climate risk, social equity, and responsible resource use. These connections can also provide firms with preferential access to credit markets, easing financial constraints that would otherwise hinder investment in sustainable initiatives.
