👀 Our solution

ValueCoMetrics collects proprietary ESG scores developed in-house by professional investors on a confidential basis. ValueCoMetrics captures market sentiment on a company's sustainability factors and provides :

• Companies/issuers: analyses enabling them to improve their CSR strategies,
• Asset managers: ESG market signals, benchmarks, a shareholder engagement tool, research, a risk management and ESG reputational risk monitoring tool, 
• Fund selectors: a tool for quantitative comparison of external funds on ESG strategies, an assessment of ESG affinity with pre-selected funds, ESG performance analyses.

Data contributors can more effectively integrate ESG factors into their activities and have privileged access to collaborative research initiatives. They help to provide collective feedback to all the companies in their investment universe, enabling them to identify best practice in their sector and improve their CSR performance.
