Sustainability

CRIF supports you in your sustainability efforts

Awareness of sustainability principles has grown exponentially over the last 10 years, prompting banks, insurance companies and enterprises to review their business model and the impact of their activities on the planet. More and more companies are required by law to prepare a sustainability report and publish their carbon footprints. At the same time, there is often still little of substance on the subject of ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance). This results in hidden risks, a lack of transparency and missing data for compliance requirements and reporting.

CRIF offers its clients assistance with risk analysis within the supply chain and greater transparency in sustainability reporting through ESG scores, estimated CO2 equivalents, the Synesgy sustainability platform and customised consulting.

The transparency in the supply chain is increased gradually and enables precise and efficient information procurement. An ESG score makes it possible to provide an initial assessment of a supplier’s sustainability maturity at the touch of a button, including an estimate of CO2 equivalents for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions and an initial risk assessment and materiality estimate. CRIF’s own sustainability platform Synesgy, which issues an internationally recognised ESG certificate in accordance with the standards of the GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) and the UN Global Compact, is available for a comprehensive self-assessment of suppliers. The platform also makes it possible to coordinate and track the progress of your suppliers via portfolio management.

Combining both approaches together with the targeted support of CRIF Consulting yields optimal results in terms of transparency and disclosure of ESG information in the supply chain, making the key ESG data available quickly and sustainably.
