UNDERSTANDING AND COMPARING ESG RATING METHODOLOGIES

ESG ratings are designed to help investors not only understand the risks and opportunities associated with ESG but also integrate ESG factors into their portfolio construction and management processes.

The long-term risk and return profile of institutional portfolios can be impacted by a number of ESG factors. In this context, promoting globally consistent standards for assessing ESG risks and opportunities is the current challenge of regulators and ESG rating agencies, but one of the key ways to truly impact on portfolios alignment to net-zero.

Objectives and key take aways

This course will help corporates to identify:

  • financially material ESG risks and opportunities

  • valid sources of information helping internal advocates to promote change and to highlight areas of weakness/strength

  • the most relevant changes to their ESG strategy and disclosures approach.
