ESG Reporting
ESG reporting
We prepare ESG reports and provide consulting services in accordance with Appendix 20/27 Environmental, Social and Governance Reporting Guidelines of HKEX listing rule, or other international mainstream reporting guidelines (Such as: GRI, TCFD, SASB, etc.). We share our insights about the policies and regulations of China and Hong Kong on ESG disclosures.
Impact reporting
Impact reporting plays an important role in the field of sustainable development and ESG. We utilize the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) and other methodologies to construct a suitable framework of indicators based on the needs and objectives of our clients. These indicators help companies assess the alignment of their business and projects with the UN SDGs or other sustainable development agendas, and quantify the impact of their sustainable development goals. We employ methods and technologies such as spatial correlation analysis and Geographic Information System (GIS) to analyze, evaluate and visualize the environmental, social, or economic impacts of business operations and projects. This allows us to better understand and quantify their influence. Through this approach, we can provide targeted recommendations for ESG measures and draft corresponding impact report for you and your stakeholders.
ESG assurance
As regulators and investors are paying more attention to corporate ESG data and disclosures, we provide independent report verification services on the report’s integrity and data accuracy, these can enhance the quality and credibility of an ESG report. We are an AA1000 Assurance Standard (AA1000AS v3) licensed service provider.
TCFD disclosure
The trend in climate related disclosures for a corporate has changed from a nice-to-have to need-to-have. Global regulators are putting greater efforts into mandating these disclosures. Our ESG team is familiar with the disclosure requirements of the TCFD and has extensive experience in report writing. We utilize GIS technology to identify climate risks in key areas of concern for the enterprise under different climate scenarios, and quantify the level of risk in these areas. This helps the enterprise establish directions and measures to address climate risks. Meanwhile, we provide SFC climate-related disclosure services to fund manager clients.

Gap analysis - ESG disclosures
We are familiar with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) reporting guidelines, which helps us in assessing the current ESG disclosure status of clients, identifying gaps between existing measures and guidelines, and addressing identified gaps.
