Your goals, and how you measure progress towards them, are of increasing interest to stakeholders. Effective targets create opportunities for product differentiation, customer growth, and new investment. Global bodies, eg the GRI, TCFD and ISSB, are now the primary standard setters so whether your reporting is obligatory or voluntary, you should be aligned with global expectations, understand the business impact and have robust data and processes to ensure compliance now and in the future.
We are experts in developing metrics and targets to reflect reporting requirements and commercial imperatives including calculating profitability impacts. We consider ESG in the context of investment including due diligence, lending criteria, credit ratings and exits including IPOs. We ensure appropriate processes and controls to minimise risks and build connectivity across your reporting to build trust.
The key to successful reporting is understanding what framework, standards and regulations are most relevant to your organisation, so you can determine what you need to measure and when.
