本研究はR&D投資が企業のESGパフォーマンスに与える影響を、系統的レビューとTescoの年次報告書(2022〜2024年)の質的内容分析により検証した。R&Dは低炭素技術やプロセス革新を通じて環境面に寄与する一方、社会面の成果は限定的で、ガバナンス開示は年をまたいで類似度が高くテンプレート化が示唆された。R&Dを持続可能なイノベーションの原動力と開示の複雑性の二重の役割として位置づけている。
English
This study examines how R&D investment shapes firms' ESG performance via a systematic review and qualitative content analysis of Tesco's 2022-2024 annual reports. R&D positively drives environmental performance through low-carbon technologies, while social outcomes remain limited and governance disclosures show high year-on-year textual similarity, suggesting templated reporting. It frames R&D as both a driver of sustainable innovation and a source of disclosure complexity.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本企業が統合報告書や有報でR&DとESGの連関をどう記述するか、またSSBJ開示における『安易な発信(cheap talk)』回避の示唆を提供する。開示のテンプレート化は日本企業の統合報告にも共通する課題であり、実務的な参考価値が高い。
In the global GX context
Amid ISSB/CSRD-driven scrutiny of narrative disclosure quality, this paper offers a replicable method (textual similarity) to detect templated or symbolic ESG reporting. It connects innovation strategy to disclosure credibility, relevant to global debates on greenwashing and assurance.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:R&D–ESG関係の混合的証拠に対し、開示テキスト分析という新たな実証手法を提示する。
🏢実務担当者:R&DとESGの結びつきを開示でどう語るか、テンプレート化を避ける示唆を得られる。
🏛政策担当者:開示の反復性・象徴的発信を検出する手法は、開示規制や保証制度の設計に示唆を与える。
📄 Abstract(原文)
Abstract This study investigates how research and development (R&D) investment influences firms’ environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance. While prior literature provides mixed evidence, little is known about this relationship when combining academic insights with disclosure-based analysis. The authors address this gap through a systematic review of peer-reviewed studies and a qualitative content analysis of Tesco’s annual reports from 2022 to 2024. Using a keyword-driven approach, R&D-related disclosures were coded into ESG categories, and textual similarity measures were applied to detect year-on-year repetition and potential ‘cheap talk’. The findings show that R&D contributes positively to environmental performance through low-carbon technologies and process innovations, while social outcomes remain limited and largely framed through workforce and customer engagement. Governance disclosures emphasise oversight but display high textual similarity across years, suggesting templated reporting. Overall, the study highlights the dual role of R&D as both a driver of sustainable innovation and a source of disclosure complexity. By linking the R&D–ESG literature with empirical evidence from corporate reporting, the paper provides theoretical and managerial insights into how innovation strategies can be aligned with sustainability objectives while avoiding symbolic communication.
