One of the biggest challenges in sustainability research today is the lack of transparency and consistency in the data available to investors.
Many existing solutions rely on aggregated or third-party interpretations of sustainability data, which can obscure the original context and reduce the reliability of the information. To address this issue, Orbit Insight sources official sustainability disclosures directly from global listed companies, ensuring that users have access to the most accurate and unfiltered data available.
To support comprehensive sustainability research, Orbit Insight provides access to three distinct sets of documents, each offering unique insights into a company’s ESG practices:
Core Annual Sustainability Report
This is the primary document where companies provide a comprehensive overview of their sustainability initiatives, achievements, and goals for the future. These reports are essential for understanding a company’s overall approach to sustainability and its alignment with global standards.
Supplemental Sub-Sector Reports
In addition to the core report, many companies publish specialized reports that focus on specific areas of sustainability, such as environmental impact, governance practices, or social responsibility. These sub-sector reports provide more detailed insights into particular aspects of a company’s ESG strategy, allowing for deeper analysis.
Third-Party Reports
Orbit Insight also includes access to third-party sustainability reports, such as those from the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). These reports offer external assessments and benchmarks that can help investors evaluate a company’s performance against industry standards and peers.
