Цель исследования разработка и обоснование концептуальной модели данного механизма. Методологическая база включает системный и сравнительный анализ, синтез теорий стейкхолдеров, ресурсной концепции, теории сигналов и гипотезы Портера, а также анализ данных ESG-индексов Российского союза промышленников и предпринимателей (РСПП) за 20142023 гг. Предложенная модель выделяет четыре взаимосвязанных канала трансформации экологических практик в устойчивость: финансово-инвестиционный, операционной эффективности, репутационнорыночный и инновационно-стратегический. Обосновано, что ЦТБ выступает не внешним фактором, а интегрирующей средой, усиливающей синергию между каналами и придающей механизму свойство самоподдержания. Сформулированы четыре управленческих принципа и разработана трехуровневая система методических рекомендаций (процессный, факторный, динамический уровни), позволяющая компаниям системно повышать отдачу от экологических инвестиций. Показана применимость модели в российской практике: компании-лидеры ESG-индексов РСПП реализуют именно ту комбинацию каналов, которая заложена в модели. Ключевой вывод статьи заключается в том, что КЭО превращается в устойчивость не изолированно, а через синергию каналов, она катализируется ЦТБ, что требует от компаний пересмотра горизонтов планирования и инструментов управления.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Current scientific literature lacks a comprehensive theoretical explanation of how corporate environmental responsibility (CER) translates into sustainability in the context of digital business transformation (DBT). The aim of this study is to develop and substantiate a conceptual model of this mechanism. The methodological framework includes a systemic and comparative analysis, a synthesis of stakeholder theories, the resource-based view, signaling theory, and Porter’s hypothesis, as well as an analysis of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RUIE) ESG index data for 2014–2023. The proposed model identifies four interconnected channels for transforming environmental practices into sustainability: financial and investment, operational efficiency, reputational and market, and innovation and strategic. It is substantiated that DBT acts not as an external factor, but as an integrating environment that enhances synergy between channels and makes the mechanism self-sustaining. Four management principles are formulated and a threelevel system of methodological recommendations (process, factor, and dynamic levels) is developed, enabling companies to systematically improve the return on environmental investments. The model’s applicability to Russian practice is demonstrated: leading companies in the RUIE ESG indices implement precisely the combination of channels defined in the model. The key conclusion of the article is that CER does not translate into sustainability in isolation, but through channel synergy, catalyzed by DBT, which requires companies to reconsider their planning horizons and management tools.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>корпоративная экологическая ответственность</kwd><kwd>корпоративная устойчивость</kwd><kwd>цифровая трансформация бизнеса</kwd><kwd>ESG-стратегия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>corporate environmental responsibility</kwd><kwd>corporate sustainability</kwd><kwd>digital business transformation</kwd><kwd>ESG strategy</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">The sustainable development goals report / The United Nations. 2024.
