SGA’s ESG advisory services are driven by secondary research to analyze ESG metrics, trends, news, and controversies. Our scalable ESG integration strategy model helps us easily deal with large-scale and dynamic data and makes us a ‘brand behind the brand’ for rating agencies and ESG data platforms. Our data aggregation is done through extensive research of company-level self-disclosed data, publicly available data, data from third-party sources, and controversy research data. We cleanse and validate data through data triangulation and ESG expert opinions while maintaining data integrity using data quality rules. We further generate deep insights through peer benchmarking and gap analysis.
We automate the segregation of downloaded data into identified and non-identifiable documents through our IPA (Intelligent Process Automation) tool and automatically extract data from identified sources based on contextual and decision-based business rules. Our intelligent data identification and extraction techniques ensure high data accuracy through analyst verification of the collected data.
Trained NLP (Natural Language Processing) engines help classify information into ESG topics of interest for generating insights. The NLP engines are calibrated per customer engagement requirements to ensure speedy turnaround times.
