Note from asker:
Environmental, social and governance
Outchhhhh! À priori... juste pour te donner des pistes ou qui sait? de l’inspiration: <i>Utilise la gouvernance socio-environnementale et commerciale comme un zoom panoramique pour faire émerger des idées d’investissement où ses filtres procurent une image différenciée sur les occasions de placement.</i> ESG = Environmental, social and [corporate] governance vertical looking = vue aérienne, vue en plan, vue en plongée ? hiérarchie ? coverage vertical looking : vue en plan/en plongée panoramique ? topologie étendue? un panorama?
Un autre essai: <i>Utilise l’ESG comme une approche hiérarchique de couverture pour explorer des idées d’investissement où les prismes environnement, société et gouvernance révèlent les facettes différenciées d’une occasion de placement.</i> Après les processus d’intégration horizontale, la hiérarchie verticale paraît appropriée, mais on s’entend que je n’ai aucune idée de ce que ce verbiage peut bien vouloir dire pour le commun des mortels. Vous avez trouvé quelque chose?
