A flexible digital tool for country-level ESG and human rights risk assessment
- Provides a systematic contextual analysis of country-level ESG risks, quickly and easily.
- A screening tool to help prioritise countries that are considered 'conflict affected and high-risk areas' (CAHRA).
- Each country is assessed based on client defined priorities, resulting in an aggregated risk ranking and score that is specific to your requirements.
The tool provides a single ‘defensible’ view on country-risk that draws on a breadth of third-party generated data points relevant to ESG risks.
Supports due diligence efforts under the OECD guidance and in line with country and regional regulations such as the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) and the German Act on Corporate Due Diligence Obligations in Supply Chains.
