What we offer
We are independent experts who understand the environmental impacts, technologies and global markets that underpin green asset classes. We leverage this bottom-up understanding to create bespoke solutions and help financial institutions deliver genuinely green outcomes. We offer a comprehensive advisory and assurance service for green bonds and loans. We provide feasibility assessments, help identify eligible assets (Green Tagging), and build Green Bond and Loan Frameworks. For assuring green bonds and loans, we provide Second Party Opinions and certifications to recognised standards. We are approved verifiers to the Climate Bonds Initiative Standard and we are members of the ICMA Green Bond Principles, contributing in both cases as technical advisors.
As impartial experts, we advise on methodologies and reporting on the environmental impacts of the use of proceeds, giving investors clarity and reassurance on the impact of their investment.
