What is ESG? Environmental, Social & Governance

In today’s market, sustainability and energy performance are becoming increasingly important to investors and lenders. It may once have been enough for a case to stand on its commercial merits, but the trend is clear: ESG now plays a decisive role in assessing a company’s ability to finance its investments.

So what are ESG and green financing? ESG represents the three pillars of sustainability: Environmental, Social and Governance. It is about assessing a company’s performance and impact across these areas. Green financing, in turn, is about funding projects and companies that have a positive environmental impact.

Onefin’s ESG solution is built around integrating ESG data and making it easily accessible. With Onefin, companies can collect and analyse their sustainability data and identify opportunities for green financing.

We help companies to:

Integrate their ESG data — energy performance certificates, their readings, and all the underlying documentation.
Identify green financing — we have compiled the market terms for green financing and can help you produce the data and benchmarks needed to negotiate better green funding.
Report sustainability performance — Onefin makes it easy to generate detailed ESG reports to communicate your sustainability work. Weighted average energy class, energy performance and green asset ratio are some of the key figures we can produce.
