SGA's ESG as a service offers a one-stop shop for rating organizations, data platforms, financial market participants, and corporates for all ESG requirements, from ESG data and insights to content, consulting, and reporting.
SGA’s ESG data and research solutions are driven by secondary research to analyze ESG trends, metrics, news, and controversies. Our scalable model enables us to deal with large-scale and dynamic data easily, making us a ‘brand behind the brand’ for rating agencies and ESG data platforms. Our data aggregation is accomplished through extensive research of company-level self-disclosed data, publicly available data, data from third-party sources, and controversial research data. We cleanse and validate data through data triangulation and ESG expert opinions while maintaining data integrity using data quality rules. To further generate deep insights, we incorporate the ESG integration strategy with peer benchmarking and gap analysis.
We automate the segregation of downloaded data into identified and non-identifiable documents through our Intelligent Process Automation (IPA) tool to extract data from identified sources based on contextual and decision-based business rules. Our intelligent data identification and extraction techniques ensure high data accuracy through analyst verification of the collected data.
Trained Natural Language Processing (NLP) engines help in categorizing information into ESG topics of interest to generate insights. The NLP engines are calibrated as per a customer’s engagement requirements to ensure speedy turnaround times.
SGA’s ESG consulting services are aimed at providing a one-stop solution for integrating sustainability with business operations – from screening and performing due diligence of portfolio companies for investment market participants to enhancing the ESG performance of corporates by identifying key components, focus areas, risks, and opportunities along with the recommendations for improvement.
With our ESG reporting services, we help organizations improve their ESG disclosure quality and transparency in ESG communications by assessing their ESG performance, bridging ESG gaps, tracking and monitoring progress, and driving resilience to ensure business continuity. Through our greenhouse gas (GHG) accounting services, we enable businesses to measure their carbon footprint and offer a way forward to achieve environmental goals.
We formulate ESG data collection templates, sustainability strategies and frameworks, implementation roadmaps, and policies and procedures to help businesses achieve industry leadership to enhance their sustainability performance and ESG ratings. Our expertise in multiple ESG frameworks, including GRI, SASB, UN SDGs, CDP, and TCFD, along with an understanding of the global sustainable regulations as well as the changing dynamics in the ESG space, enables us to cater to the diverse ESG requirements of our clients.
