Reviewer 3 Report

Content is more than contextualized enough providing every reader with knowledge on basic ESG platform to its complex use in business practice.

Regarding the methods used I just want to state that any method (DEA, panel analysis) will provide realistic results when the tested variables are choosed in a correct manner. In case of CSR and ESG correctly stated connections among frameworks of sustainability and business practices always provide valid results. The challenge is how to present sustainability correctly, and authors have done this well on a wide sample.

I would also like to state that DEA was alreaddy used in research of the ESG and sustainability platforms. Scientific approach to sustainability is on a verge,therefore reccomendation to the authors would be to use new analytical approaches in future ESG research. In research of sustainability issues for high originality and new scientific findings a new models of sustainability research have to implemented. DEA is not always applicable or ment to be used for sustainability platforms evaluation.

Reviewer 5 Report

The research is very good and addresses an important problem related to human lifeÙˆ its future and the sustainable development.

The English language is good, but it needs improvement, as some sentences were written too long and needed to be split into two or more sentences.
