ESG Performance Score Core & Plus

# Overview

The ESG Performance Score provides investors and corporates with a transparent sustainability assessment of corporate entities. The ESG Performance Score measures company performance relative to salient sustainability issues across the spectrum of environmental, social, and governance pillars. The score is driven by a sector-specific model that emphasises financially material issues. The definition of financial materiality is inspired by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and refers to information relevant to investor decision-making.

The ESG Performance Score comes with a transparent methodology and full disclosure of the underlying data. This allows users to understand the performance drivers, explain score changes at each level of the assessment, and drill down to the associated raw data points including evidence*. The score is designed with both investors and corporates in mind. Investors can use the score to identify companies that are more likely to outperform over the long run and create long-term value for shareholders. Corporates can use the score to systematically assess their performance, conduct peer comparisons, and identify disclosure gaps.
