Portfolio Data & Insights
As any GP knows, it requires a herculean effort to pull together data for annual responsible investment reporting. Still, few firms make use of the rich stories that the data contains.
When we see a firm’s annual data, we see great opportunities to unpack insights that improve performance and focus companies on value creation opportunities. Whether it’s a question of benchmarking companies against peers or understanding what the data says in the context of customer requirements and emerging regulation, the data can reveal where a business can differentiate and where it is falling behind.
Analysing and playing that data back to key stakeholders, from portfolio company leadership to deal teams, is often a missing link in the overall responsible investment cycle; we see it as a step that can serve as a crucial conduit for driving companies toward initiatives that move the needle on sustainability and value and showing appreciation to portfolio company teams for the effort they’ve put into collecting data.
