Information

  • No single gold standard exists for ESG ratings, which are reliant on the robustness of the data used and vary in consistency creating significant challenges for investors when trying to evaluate a business by its ESG credentials. While the concept of an ESG profile is both valued and broadly understood by many organisations, the ability to link it to tangible outcomes is often lacking, undermining its full potential. This is largely due to inconsistencies in measuring it, and lack of a single, recognised methodology.
