RepRisk, a global technology company, has launched new Due Diligence Scores to help businesses manage ESG risks. These scores, ranging from 0 (low risk) to 100 (high risk), assess specific risk factors like biodiversity and human rights. This allows companies to quickly and accurately evaluate their risk profiles.

These thematic scores are now available to all RepRisk Data Feed clients. They provide a detailed view of a company’s risks, enabling decision-makers to focus on the most relevant areas. Alexandra Mihailescu Cichon, Chief Commercial Officer at RepRisk, stated that banks, investors, and businesses have long needed these metrics to simplify due diligence for financing, investment, and supplier engagement.

Clients can choose from ready-to-use packages or customize their own set from over 200 individual scores. These scores cover ESG pillars (environmental, social, governance), frameworks, and regulations like SDG, SASB, SFDR, the German Supply Chain Act, and Modern Slavery acts. They also address specific issues, from human rights to climate and greenwashing.

A recent report by RepRisk on S&P 500® companies shows that ESG risks vary, often being higher in one specific area rather than across all three pillars. This detailed assessment helps businesses better manage their ESG risks.
