      <subfield code="a">The Corporate Sustainability Performance 2024 report analyzes the ESG performance of around 1,900 European small and mid-sized enterprises, showing steady progress with an average score of 53/100. Environmental factors saw the greatest improvement (+13 points since 2022), while social issues remain the weakest area. Companies that engaged in EthiFinance's rating dialogue scored significantly higher, highlighting the value of active participation. Southern European firms, especially in Portugal, France, and Spain, lead in sustainability, and EU companies consistently outperform non-EU peers. Automotive, materials, and real estate sectors rank highest, while finance and healthcare lag. Most ESG controversies relate to social issues (60%), followed by governance (30%) and environment (10%). The report concludes that SMEs are advancing in sustainability, though challenges persist in social practices and biodiversity</subfield>
