Abstract

The fact that several environmental and social risks are on increase and have become a more complex structure with globalization, they impose greater jeopardy to countries than economic risks. Hence, it is necessary to investigate the relationship between the performances related to these risks. For this purpose, environmental and social performance indicators based on the G-20 countries' data have been weighted firstly with the Entropy method. Then, performance measurement has been done with the Gray Relational Analysis method. In the final stage, the relationship between these performance scores and the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita, which is one of the economic performance indicators, has been investigated by calculating the Spearman rank correlation coefficient. Findings reveal that there is a strong positive relationship between environmental-social performance and GDP per capita.
