Vivriti Capital sought to improve its existing ESG framework, and keeping in mind the goal of providing ease of convenience to the client, our team proposed the following solutions:
- Develop a sustainability assessment solution for Vivriti Capital that would evaluate company performance, generate sustainability scores, generate category level ESG scores, and aid the company in conducting portfolio level analysis.
- To start with, ESGRisk.ai developed 36 sector-based sustainability assessment solutions with ~ 55 indicators for each industry.
