The ESG Consensus® methodology provides the most representative market perception of an investment’s sustainability risk. The assessment is based on multiple recognized ESG sources. It determines the average and the convergence of these independant ESG opinions in order to guarantee reliable and unbiased results.

Representative of market perception
Conser uses more than 20 different recognised ESG sources to capture ESG features and exposure to controversies. As an illustration, the ESG Consensus® for large caps is typically built from more than 10 independent ESG sources.

Broad coverage
The ESG consensus® covers a universe of more than 5’500 companies and 170 countries.  The coverage of large caps and of OCDE countries is close to 100%. The treatment of emerging markets and small & mid-caps is constantly growing.
