A Global Systemically Important Bank (G-SIB) faced significant challenges in evaluating the sustainability performance of its extensive global supply chain. This lack of visibility prevented the bank from effectively mitigating climate-related risks, meeting regulatory requirements, and advancing its net-zero strategy.

ESG Book's Solution

ESG Book provided a bespoke platform tailored to the bank’s specific needs, enabling it to engage with over 800 key suppliers and collect vital climate risk and transition data. For suppliers without sufficient data, firmographic information was used to generate reliable estimates.

Data Analysis and Integration

  • Monitored disclosure progress and reviewed the data submitted on the platform.
  • Exported the data for detailed analysis.
  • Integrated data feeds into the bank’s internal systems for comprehensive use.

The Outcome
