G&A’s full-suite process is a proven solution for publicly-traded and privately-owned companies publishing their first sustainability report, as well as firms looking to enhance and expand on their existing reporting. Wherever you are on your sustainability journey, we have the knowledge, experience, and drive to take your reporting to the next level.
We will work together to create a report that utilizes the most relevant reporting frameworks, standards, and initiatives for your company, which could include the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) Standards, recommendations from the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and emerging standards such as the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and the disclosure standards of the International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB).
We produce corporate and institutional reports that are investor-focused, using many of the same underlying datasets. The report will tell your story in a way that maximizes return on investment by moving your scores and ratings with ESG data providers (i.e. Bloomberg, MSCI, Sustainalytics, ISS, S&P Global, and more).
