Moody’s lanceert de eerste in zijn soort ESG-scorevoorspeller om miljoenen MKB-bedrijven wereldwijd transparantie te bieden over ESG-risico’s
LONDEN–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Moody’s heeft vandaag een unieke tool gelanceerd om realtime voorspelde ecologische, sociale en governance (ESG)-scores te genereren voor miljoenen openbare en particuliere kleine en middelgrote ondernemingen (MKB’s) wereldwijd. De ESG Score Predictor is gebaseerd op een model dat is afgeleid van Moody’s eigen ESG-scoremethodologie voor large-capbedrijven. Het biedt financiële instellingen essentiële kwantitatieve gegevens voor portefeuille- en risicobeheer en helpt bedrijven bij het bewaken van ESG-risico’s in hun wereldwijde toeleveringsketens.
“MKB’s vormen de ruggengraat van elke economie; ze stimuleren innovatie en voeden wereldwijde toeleveringsketens”, zegt Andrea Blackman, Global Head of Moody’s ESG Solutions. “Naast portefeuilleanalyse en door analisten gestuurde MKB-beoordelingen, voegt de ESG Score Predictor een unieke, integrale component toe aan ons uitgebreide pakket van geavanceerde oplossingen om beleggers en bedrijven te helpen geen middel onbeproefd te laten bij het identificeren en analyseren van ESG-risico’s en kansen.”
Moody’s Launches First-of-Its-Kind ESG Score Predictor to Provide Transparency on ESG Risk for Millions of SMEs Worldwide
LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Moody’s today launched a first-of-its-kind tool to generate real-time predicted environmental, social, and governance (ESG) scores for millions of public and private small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) worldwide. Based on a model derived from Moody’s proprietary ESG scoring methodology for large-cap corporates, the ESG Score Predictor provides financial institutions with essential quantitative data for portfolio and risk management, and helps companies monitor ESG risk across their global supply chains.
“SMEs are the backbone of every economy; they drive innovation and power global supply chains,” said Andrea Blackman, Global Head of Moody’s ESG Solutions. “Alongside portfolio analysis and analyst-driven SME assessments, the ESG Score Predictor adds a unique, integral component to our comprehensive suite of cutting-edge solutions to help investors and companies leave no stone unturned when identifying and analyzing ESG risks and opportunities.”
Assessing companies’ exposure to ESG risks requires comparable and standardized metrics. Limitations in company disclosures continue to affect data quality and company coverage, especially in the SME space. The ESG Score Predictor leverages state-of-the-art advanced analytics to provide 56 ESG scores and sub-scores for any given company using location, sector, and size. Customers can access approximately 140 million company ESG scores on Moody’s Orbis database, Procurement Catalyst and Credit Catalyst platforms, via an application programming interface (API), or leverage the ESG Score Predictor model with their in-house data to score their portfolios.
