ESG Research Services

Our ESG solutions analysts work as an extension of a client’s team, supporting them on executing ESG research and advisory. They are qualified to execute customised ESG, climate change and sustainable business development (SDG) mandates. They execute deep-dive ESG research while adopting a top-down, bottom-up or combined approach.

The ESG research solutions we provide includes building databases at the company and country level, developing frameworks, models, analysis, writing reports and preparing presentations. Our ESG support on climate change solutions includes opportunity assessment, risk analysis, climate financing and support on disclosures and reporting. The SDG mandates capture impact assessment and company benchmarking. Our ESG support includes risk assessment, scoring, integrated analysis and audits. We are also expanding our ESG franchise using AI-/NLP-driven solutions.
