How we help
Our approach to ESG investing
With our standardized ESG data points (450+) and analytics (70+) – for 80% of global market cap based on publicly reported company data – we strive to be the industry standard database that reflects official company disclosure on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) metrics.
We believe that company disclosure and standards of reporting on these issues is critical for driving accurate investor information, public discourse, and regulatory guidance.
We also believe that transparency is critical to driving positive outcomes at both a financial and social level.
To this end – for the purposes of company scoring – we do not use, create, or collect data that is not disclosed or publicly available.
As such, we can create a complete line of auditability all the way from documents (such as annual reports), to the company data points in our database, to company scores and fund ratings, which are based on robust fund holdings data.
