Sustainability Ranking & Industry Benchmark

#582

• Carbon emissions intensity (normalized by industry)
• Share of renewable electricity consumption (normalized by industry)
• Sustainability maturity
• Intent to leverage sustainability solutions
• Sustainability accreditations and certifications

The ranking takes into account all companies in illuminem's database. It leverages publicly available data as well as responses from the brief illuminem survey (please fill it out here for your company).

Sustainability Maturity

^ⓈMaturity measures how far along a company is on its sustainability journey.

It takes into account various factors such as:

• Breadth and depth of sustainability strategy
• Investment in sustainability
• External stakeholder engagement on sustainability topics
• Disclosure, awareness and management of environmental performance
• Sustainability certifications, awards and memberships

The maturity rank is based on a company's overall maturity score compared to other companies in the same industry (over 50 companies) in Illuminem's database. Higher maturity result in a higher rank.
Companies at the early stage of their sustainability journey are usually just starting to recognize the importance of sustainability. Their goals are often compliance-driven, cost-saving, or reputation-based, rather than deeply integrated into their core business strategy. Example solutions include services to comply with regulations, compliance software, consulting services, energy management & efficiency to reduce cost, certifications etc.
Companies with high sustainability maturity have deeply integrated sustainability into their core strategy and view it as a competitive advantage. Sustainability is not just a compliance requirement but a business driver that aligns with long-term value creation. Example solutions include insetting & supply chain services, carbon neutrality solutions, circular economy models, innovations in sustainable products and services etc.

Sustainability Intent

^ⓈIntent measures a company's likelihood to buy sustainability products and services in the near future.

It takes into account various factors such as:

• Expressed intent by relevant company employees to buy sustainability solutions (reported directly to illuminem)
• Previous company activity in buying relevant solutions (reported to illuminem or aggregated from global registries)
• News or public reports by the company signaling interest to buy relevant solutions
• Intensity and progress against sustainability targets or pledges (reported publicly by the company)
• Level of pressure on sustainability performance from relevant stakeholders (as reported by the company or estimated based on industry/geography)

The intent rank is based on a company's overall intent score compared to other companies in the same industry (over 50 companies) in Illuminem's database. Higher intent results in a higher rank.

Progress against targets

^{ⓈCompany sustainability report}

Standard Chartered highlights the significant funding shortfall in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, with a financing deficit of USD 4 trillion annually. The company underscores the need for USD 94.8 trillion to achieve a timely transition to net zero, emphasizing the economic impact on emerging markets if additional funds are secured through higher taxes and borrowing. The report suggests that developed markets' financial support could enhance household consumption and GDP growth in emerging markets. Standard Chartered is committed to supporting social and economic development in regions where sustainable finance can have a significant impact, driving commerce and prosperity through expertise and capital movement.
