Introduction

In recent years, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors have become essential components in evaluating corporate sustainability and long-term financial success. Investors, regulators, and stakeholders increasingly emphasize ESG performance as a key indicator of risk management, ethical practices, and strategic resilience. In the retail sector-characterized by intense competition and high consumer sensitivity-ESG practices play a critical role in shaping brand reputation, operational efficiency, and financial outcomes.

This study provides Dataset 2 (SPSS + SmartPLS) to examine the impact of ESG factors on firm value and financial performance, focusing specifically on listed retail companies. The dataset is designed for researchers, graduate students, and analysts seeking to conduct quantitative analysis using SPSS and SmartPLS, particularly within the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) framework.

PLS-SEM is widely used to analyze complex relationships between ESG dimensions (environmental, social, governance) and corporate performance metrics. Therefore, this dataset is highly suitable for empirical research in finance, sustainability, and strategic management.
