As You Know

The values behind Environmental, Social, and Governance (#ESG) data form a critical framework for assessing material risks, used by investors and businesses worldwide. As this data becomes increasingly accurate and sophisticated, financial analysts, companies, and regulators are working to close gaps, address inconsistencies, and standardize metrics for easier comparability. The need for high quality material risk data has never been higher. The information is out there, mostly generated by non-profit advocacy groups.  The demand for high-quality material risk data has never been greater. Much of this valuable information originates from non-profit advocacy groups, leading the charge for #transparency and #accountability. At As You Know, our mission is to simplify access to this high-quality, comprehensive material risk data—empowering organizations to make informed decisions and optimize human capital.
