The service provided allows financial institutions to categorize/classify projects based on their overall ESG risk level as low, medium, or high and their specific assessment in the environmental, social, and governance dimensions.

This service aims to carry out a comprehensive scoping exercise to identify all areas of the company/project throughout its operations and relationships, including its supply chains, where significant risks associated with responsible business conduct are most likely to exist. Relevant elements include, among others, information on sectoral, geographical, social, product, and company risk factors, including known risks that the company has faced or is likely to face.

The due diligence service is designed to help financial institutions assess and mitigate the risks associated with environmental, social, and governance criteria in the projects or transactions they plan to finance.

This analysis is crucial to ensuring the sustainability of investments and regulatory compliance, as well as protecting the institution’s reputation.

ESG auditing is a systematic assessment of a company’s performance and practices in relation to environmental, social, and governance factors. It evaluates the extent to which a company/project complies with sustainability standards and assesses its impact on various stakeholders, including employees, communities, customers, investors, as well as the planet and its ecosystems. It also confirms the ESG risks to which an organization may be exposed.

The audit allows for an assessment of whether the company: a) caused (or could cause) the negative impact; b) contributed (or could contribute) to the negative impact; or c) the negative impact is (or could be) directly linked to its activities, products, or services by virtue of a business relationship.
