ESG Rating Provider

ESG Cert S.r.l. was established from a conviction shared by all shareholders: ESG is an essential step for public and private companies in every sector. The extensive experience gained over decades in system and process certification by several members of the company, together with a long path in sustainable development started in 2018 by the founding partners through several ESG rating projects, led to the creation of our company with the goal of becoming a leading, authoritative player recognized as such by all stakeholders.

— Identity

The ESG Cert name

The ESG Cert name, a registered trademark at European level, already expresses the vocation for which it was created: to provide rigorous ESG Ratings based on clear and transparent methodologies.

It comes from our team's desire to offer the many interested companies answers to the major challenges of sustainable development, especially in light of the initiatives and measures promoted by the EU legislature.

ESG aspects are the starting point for specialization on specific technical topics and represent the link between the processes that govern the life of businesses of every level and size.

— ESG

ESG rating

The acronym ESG is used in the economic field to indicate all financial activities that make it possible to define an investment as responsible, taking into account environmental, social, and governance aspects.

The rating developed by ESG Cert evaluates environmental, social, and governance performance, making it possible to complement traditional financial ratings and improve assessment capacity both for investment choices or credit access evaluations and for building a responsible value chain from an ethical perspective, with recognized attention to respect for the environment and people supported by conscious and competent governance in choosing sustainable objectives.

Alongside growing public awareness and legislative requirements, the world of finance and credit also requires ESG risk assessment and increasingly transparent and objective information on the sustainable development undertaken by companies.
