The Amenity ESG model employs contextual analysis and language patterns to provide investors with real-time, broadly aggregated, and unbiased environmental, social, and governance-related evidence and scores. Our ESG team has developed a taxonomy of 25 events across three dimensions (E, S, and G). These events can be viewed in sum to represent the ESG profile of a given company or analyzed individually. Our foundational taxonomy is flexible and can be customized to reflect your investing strategy.
