We are more than just report authors and communications specialists. Our award-winning team has been at the forefront of the evolution of sustainability reporting and ESG strategy for 20 years. During this time, we have become the trusted partners of large multinational companies from a range of sectors, with our relationships typically developing into multi-year engagements to support continuous improvement.
Our approach to reporting is underpinned by our deep expertise in ESG strategy and risk management. We can work with you to communicate your story and unique ESG investment case to external audiences. At the same time, we can help deliver deep insight into material ESG risks, opportunities and impacts – while driving enhanced performance and supporting the integration of sustainability into corporate strategy. Achieving these outcomes is more important than ever in the context of increasing focus on ESG performance from regulators, investors, consumers and other stakeholders.

We are a world leading global risk advisory organisation. This means our reporting practice can not only bring to bear deep expertise in ESG strategy and risk management, it is supported by in-house climate change scientists, human rights legal experts and supply chain specialists. As such, the value and insight we deliver – in terms of strategy development and enhanced performance – extends far beyond the reporting cycle and reinforces our competitive advantage.
Reporting is not just a management outcome. Much of the true value is realised when the sustainability reporting cycle is integrated into a multi-year, strategic approach. We can help you to leverage this process to spur valuable strategic dialogue, identify and action areas for improvement, and enhance multiple aspects of the ESG management system lifecycle.
We can work with you to apply our multi-phase, quantitatively scored materiality assessment process. This will enable you to identify and prioritise your most significant ESG impacts, integrate internal and external stakeholder feedback, and focus your reporting strategy and management activity where it matters most.
We appreciate that sustainability reporting can be a daunting prospect – with the so-called ‘alphabet soup’ of ESG standards to navigate, as well as a myriad of competing stakeholder disclosure requests. Our comprehensive approach – starting with our structured materiality assessment process – can help you to cut through much of the noise and focus on what matters most to you and your stakeholders. This includes helping you identify and understand the right external standards for your organisation – and supporting you on every step of the journey towards full alignment.
Integrated reporting is often a multi-year process. This journey won’t look the same for any one company, but we can work with you to develop your own bespoke roadmap for integration. Not only will this help you to develop a clear and integrated narrative explaining how your organisation creates value – but it will ultimately drive integrated thinking and decision making to help support long-term value creation.
