What you can screen for
Business involvement and ESG screening
Screen for controversial business involvement such as tobacco, gambling and defence, and the other ESG screens embedded in investment restrictions, products and legal agreements. Run norms-based screens against the UN Global Compact and OECD guidelines, and return thematic exposure as true/false verdicts, qualitative answers or quantitative thresholds on revenue, capex and other financial criteria.
Custom screening criteria
Write your own criteria for novel topics, in-house investment and supply chain policies, or values-based principles. Start from your own policies, from our Knowledge Base of questionnaires and metrics, or from the model’s own recommendations for emerging risks such as cybersecurity, responsible AI governance and nature loss.
Monitor portfolio companies and suppliers
Build alerts for changes in news sentiment and developing controversies, so you see them before they turn into major issues. Run ongoing screens for the governance and business structure changes that breach covenants, investment restrictions and policies, and get the mitigations alongside the finding.
Screen your supply chain
Screen suppliers for environmental issues, human rights concerns and other risks at a fraction of the cost of traditional diligence, with results in hours rather than weeks. Suppliers upload policies, certifications and reports, which saves them filling out questionnaires and saves you dealing with proliferating reporting standards.
Leverage exclusion and industry membership lists
Asset owners and sovereign wealth funds maintain detailed observation and exclusion lists. Use and adapt them for your own screening requirements, alongside positive lists such as industry body membership and collective engagement initiatives.
