The EFFAS Commission on ESG issues -CESG- has been instrumental in communicating the needs of investment professionals in capital markets to corporates, in providing practical advice in the form of Key Performance Indicators (EFFAS KPIs for ESG) and interactive data formats, helping to enhance the integration of extra-financials in classic investment methods. CESG’s work on has been acknowledged by the Lab as an important cornerstone to Lab’s mission. In the past months EFFAS has supported the Lab with conducting focus groups with investment professionals and companies across Europe to deepen its understanding of the needs and requirements of investment professionals around non-financial performance and to test the developing model. Since 2014, the CESG has supported the EFFAS CESGA programme’s aims to overcome this challenge by providing the necessary training for the efficient valuation, measurement and integration of ESG issues into investment analysis.
