Abstract: Financial analysis, traditionally considered as a suitable tool for assessing a company's financial and economic situation and guiding the decision‐making processes of companies and financial markets, should embrace sustainability issues within its logic, under some kind of scheme or framework that permits the evaluation of a company's sustainable management system and the impact of sustainability issues on financial performance. An integrated model is needed that takes into account the social, environmental and economic performances of a company and their expression using data that is both quantitative and qualitative, accounting and non‐accounting, physical and monetary. In this paper an integrated framework for the financial analysis of the creation of sustainability‐oriented value in companies is proposed.
