    La desigualdad constituye uno de los problemas de nuestro tiempo. Distintos observadores la señalan como una de las causas de la creciente desconfianza social en las instituciones y del auge del populismo. Este artículo examina en qué medida la agenda ESG o de la sostenibilidad empresarial está poniendo el foco en la desigualdad, dado que en cierta medida esta puede ser entendida como una externalidad negativa generada. La atención a la desigualdad de la agenda ESG está limitada a cuestiones muy específicas relativas a la retribución. Concluimos con algunas propuestas orientadas a que las compañías examinen su contribución neta a este problema.

    Inequality is one of the problems of our time. Various observers point to it as one of the causes of growing social mistrust in institutions and the rise of populism. This article examines the extent to which the ESG or sustainability agenda is focusing on inequality, given that to some extent this can be understood as a negative externality.

    The focus on inequality in the ESG agenda is limited to very specific issues related to remuneration. We conclude with some proposals for companies to examine their net contribution to this problem.
