Our methodology

In cooperation with our think-tank partner Global ESG Monitor (GEM), we analyze your official documents (e.g., annual report, sustainability report, remuneration report). 
With GEM’s extensive database of over 500 analyzed companies, we not only measure your performance precisely but also benchmark it against peers and best-in-class performers. This enables us to identify areas requiring additional attention or with potential for improvement. 

Our analysis aligns with established international reporting standards (IFRS, UNCG, TNFD, GRI and ESRS) and can provide a comprehensive compliance check. 

The GAP Analysis

The gap analysis provides a statistical assessment and data-driven evaluation that identifies your company’s overall transparency ranking and relative strengths and weaknesses across ten dimensions. 

These insights help organizations understand key areas for improvement and develop practical, actionable enhancements that can be implemented efficiently. 

The Peer Group Analysis

The peer group analysis offers a detailed evaluation of your company’s performance across the areas assessed by GEM. 

It includes quantitative scores and visual data insights illustrating the strengths and weaknesses of competitors and showing exactly where your company stands in comparison. The analysis also features a narrative assessment of strengths and weaknesses within the evaluated dimensions, supported by visual data representations. 

Best Practice Insights

To deepen data understanding, the report provides best practice examples from your peers. These examples help you understand what is expected in the market and how disclosures can be effectively presented. 

They can also serve as a foundation for developing new strategies and initiatives or evaluating the impact of existing initiatives and policies.
