3 Practical Techniques to Monitor ESG on Private Companies

Enjoy this webinar on the 3 practical techniques to monitor ESG on private companies

As the ESG space evolves, more and more investors and partners are looking for a holistic, clearer overview of companies, but what do these changes mean for the Private Equity markets?

From voluntary rules migrating to mandatory regulation up to the new technologies being developed, ESG factors still represent a challenge today to firms.

Watch our fireside chat with Sylvain Forté, CEO and Co-Founder of SESAMm, and Navin Rauniar, Advisory Partner at Tata Consultancy Services. We will debate the increasing number of ESG scores, disclosures and standards that are being developed. Come learn how PE firms leverage new processes, data and analytics, and AI technologies like Natural Language Processing, to monitor ESG on private companies.

Topics covered:

• • As listed companies disclose their ever-evolving ESG metrics, how will PE firms ensure compliance with private companies?

• • How should PE firms compute and leverage metrics which can be linked with coverage or data gaps through traditional methods or for due diligence?

• • What will private investor perception be as ESG data are not up to par with listed companies? How can those assessments be performed?

• • The onus on financial markets to "police" the market for ESG will lead to increasing demand for data points from PE firms – how do PE firms need to deal with disclosure?

• • Beyond regulation, thinking best in class and building differentiation, how can regular and ESG data help create positive impact investment strategies in PE or be leveraged by portfolio companies for value creation?
