ESG ratings are comprised of a set of scores given to companies based on an assessment of their approach to managing Environmental, Social & Governance factors and rely heavily on the quality and comprehensiveness of sustainability reporting.
​
ESG scores and underlying data are used by investors to inform investment decision-making and for the selection of the investible universe for ESG-themed indices and funds.
Managing your ESG ratings and related controversies can be resource intensive and oftentimes challenging as the methodologies underpinning them vary greatly, often causing confusion and uncertainty for Sustainability Officers.
​

Our unique services support companies to identify the most impactful ESG rating agencies according to their shareholder base, reputational value and strategic value. We do this by helping companies prioritise the most relevant ratings, carry out an efficient and effective ESG data verification process, and help to identify areas for future improvements to these ratings.
