The Analyst Desk utilizes SmartView® 360 to distill large sets of complex financial and extra‐financial environmental, social and governance (ESG) data to produce comprehensive, relevant and actionable information for investors, executive decision makers and our advisory team. We actively screen and filter our proprietary database of global, public companies to evaluate a firm’s Sustainable Performance Value (SPV) – a rating of a company’s total financial, environmental, social and governance performance. The SmartView® 360 methodology for SPV evaluates firms across 200 metrics that are proven to have a strong correlation with outperformance and improved shareholder value, and force-ranks firms based on their relative performance. This is the basis for the prestigious NASDAQ CRD Global Sustainability Index.
By analyzing companies, industries, sectors and markets using SmartView® 360 and other proprietary tools and data, the Analyst Desk is able to provide executive decision makers with industry-leading business intelligence on sustainability reporting and operational performance. Paired with leadership that has over twenty-years advising and assisting organizations use sustainability analytics to embed sustainable development principles in growth and risk mitigation strategies, organizational structures, and other processes, tools and systems; the Analyst Desk is well positioned to help any organization develop sustainably.
