We support risk management and compliance units in establishing the necessary frameworks to conduct environmental and human rights due diligence and risk assessments. We also assess potentially controversial companies, countries, and sectors.
The G7, OECD, and the United Nations expect corporations to address and avoid adverse impacts in their business relationships and investments. Being linked to environmental and human rights issues may lead to financial losses, reputational damage, regulatory sanctions, or even litigation.
We help you to identify criteria in line with international and national standards and determine your unique tolerance to risk as an asset owner, lender, or underwriter.
We screen client portfolios as well as equity and debt portfolios consisting of both listed and non-listed entities.
