Identify portfolio exposure to violations of international norms and your specific sustainability values using Inrate’s ESG screening solutions. Screen companies based on their involvement in adverse products, controversies, and UN Global Compact (UNGC) violations using flexible criteria and thresholds.

In an era where sustainable investing is more than just a trend, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) screening solutions have become essential for investors seeking to align their portfolios with their values. As the demand for transparency and ethical investments continues to rise, the right ESG screening tools can make all the difference. Let's explore the core features that make ESG screening solutions invaluable for today's conscientious investors.

1. Comprehensive Controversy Screening

One of the most critical aspects of ESG screening is the ability to identify and evaluate controversies associated with companies. Effective solutions cover a wide range of issues, from human rights violations to environmental breaches. By monitoring 38 different types of controversies, investors can ensure they are fully informed about the risks and challenges within their portfolios.

2. Adverse Product Screening

Another vital feature of ESG screening solutions is adverse product screening. This capability allows investors to filter out companies involved in industries that conflict with their ethical standards, such as tobacco, weapons, or fossil fuels. By screening for 60 different adverse product categories, investors can confidently tailor their portfolios to match their sustainability goals.

3. UNGC Screening

The United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) provides a framework for responsible business practices, and adherence to its principles is a key indicator of a company’s commitment to sustainability. ESG screening solutions incorporate UNGC screening, enabling investors to evaluate companies based on their compliance with these global standards. This feature helps investors identify and support businesses that align with international norms and ethical practices.

4. Flexible Criteria and Thresholds

Every investor has unique values and priorities. ESG screening solutions offer flexibility in setting criteria and thresholds, allowing users to customize their screening process. Whether focusing on specific environmental concerns or prioritizing social governance, this feature ensures that portfolios are as aligned with personal or organizational values as possible.

Inrate’s ESG Screening Solutions, for example, offer insights into over 10,000 companies globally. This expansive coverage provides investors with a broad view of potential investment opportunities and risks, making it easier to build a diversified portfolio that still adheres to ESG principles.
