SUCCEED WITH OUR SUSTAINABILITY SOLUTIONS
As investor demand has grown to incorporate a broad range of sustainability issues, our ratings offer industry-leading research and detailed data with a broad range of delivery options. ESG ratings on companies, countries and green bonds provide investors with the in-depth insight to effectively incorporate sustainability in their investment decision. Our research is instrumental in helping investors minimize sustainability risks, comply with evolving regulatory and stakeholder requirements and seize opportunities.
The presence of local and global teams ensure constant review of the ratings concept and overall relevant environmental, social and governance related topics.
Our ESG experts provide on-going monitoring and research on company practices, assessing information through numerous sources and following through with expert analysis and consultation. Analysts gather information through the media and other public sources, conduct interviews with stakeholders, and collect information on company policies and practices. Extensive company and stakeholder dialogue, coupled with strict verification, ensures objectivity and exhaustiveness of the research.

Effective impact investment strategies are needed to align investments with the UN SDG requirements.
