What is ESG? ESG investing is an asset management approach that considers the environment, social issues, and corporate governance practices. It's a type of stakeholder investing, which argues shareholder returns should not be the only goal. Stakeholder investing contrasts with traditional approaches that exclusively consider financial factors like balance sheets, income statements, and valuations to maximize risk-adjusted returns (also known as shareholder investing). |

State legislatures have introduced all five major types of pro-ESG bills that Ballotpedia has identified. Click the links below for more information on each approach:
- Non-financial criteria consideration approaches. This legislative approach requires public fund managers to consider ESG data and other non-financial criteria in their investment strategies.
- Industry and country divestment approaches. This legislative approach prohibits public investments in companies in certain industries that the state government believes are environmentally or socially harmful. Examples of such companies include oil producers, private prison businesses, gun manufacturers, and other types of industries.
- Corporate board diversity approaches. This legislative approach requires companies or publicly held companies to appoint a certain number of women, people of color, and people from other underrepresented groups to corporate boards of directors.
- Corporate disclosure approaches. This approach requires corporations to disclose certain types of ESG data, such as net emissions from business operations and climate-related risk calculations, to the state.
- ESG state contract requirement approaches. This approach requires that government contracts contain ESG requirements, conditions, or other criteria.

Non-financial criteria consideration approaches
