Abstract

In the recent years ESG has attracted a great deal of public interest because of its apparent importance for the economic health of corporations and society in large. As businesses increasingly recognize the importance of sustainability and responsible corporate practices, the traditional functions of management accountants have expanded to encompass ESG considerations. In this backdrop, this paper makes an attempt to study the evolution of the management accountant’s role, the integration of ESG metrics into management accounting practices, and the challenges and opportunities associated with this transformation. Further, the study provides insights into how management accountants contribute to enhancing ESG reporting and driving sustainable business performance.
