India Leads in Impact Consciousness Expectations

A big study called the SEC Newgate 2025 Impact Monitor asked over 20,000 people in 20 countries about what they expect from businesses and governments.

India was included for the first time, and it turns out that Indians have very high hopes.

They want businesses to be responsible, help the local economy, and care about the environment.

Indians are also very optimistic about their country's future, with 81% believing things are going in the right direction.

This is much higher than the global average of 48%.

The study shows that people around the world want companies to do good things for everyone, not just make money.

They also want businesses to be open and honest about what they are doing.

In India, people are more aware of something called ESG, which stands for environmental, social, and governance issues, and they care a lot about these topics.

The study was released just before a big meeting in Davos, Switzerland, where world leaders talk about important issues.
