PORTFOLIO IMPACT HOTSPOT ANALYSIS FOR IMPACT REPORTING
There is a growing demand from stakeholders for investments that generate positive impacts on the planet and society. While most organizations are currently strengthening their reporting due to progressively binding regulation, the only way to stay ahead of the transition and effectively manage impact is to measure it.
Our solution: We developed a pioneering approach to assist financial institutions on their journey towards measuring lending and investment activities and reporting on impacts. Our Global Impact Database provides company level and country-sector level data estimates to quantify the value chain impact of investment portfolios and express it in economic terms, thus providing financial institutions with the forward-thinking insights needed to move towards long term value creation.
Why a Hotspot Analysis? Current databases and estimation methods are lacking in impact and value chain coverage, making the analysis of complex portfolios challenging and resource-intensive. GID hotspot analysis provides a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the biggest opportunities and risks along the value chain, supporting financial institutions in the identification of priority areas for their impact strategy.
