ESG, DEI & Impact Readiness

ESG policy, DEI scorecard, climate disclosure, SFDR Article 8/9 alignment — the gating requirement for IFC, DFI, SIDBI, and EU LP capital.

Why it matters

Global LPs (CalPERS, GIC, EU pension funds) now mandate SFDR Article 8/9 alignment. IFC / DFI / SIDBI capital requires ESG + DEI + impact scorecards. This is no longer ESG theatre — it's a capital-access gate.

Scope covered

ESG policy framework (Environmental + Social + Governance)

BRSR (Business Responsibility & Sustainability Reporting) alignment

GHG inventory (Scope 1 + 2 + 3) baseline

Climate risk disclosure (TCFD-aligned)

DEI scorecard (gender, geography, background, leadership pipeline)

POSH committee + whistleblower mechanism

Supplier code of conduct + diligence

SFDR Article 8 / 9 alignment for EU LPs

Impact metrics (jobs, lives, units of CO2e avoided)

How we run it

Our methodology

A senior-led delivery sequence — not a template dump. Each phase is operated with your team and external counsel, not handed over as a deck.

1
Materiality & policy draft
Week 1–2
Run the ESG materiality assessment; draft the ESG + DEI policy framework and governance map.
2
GHG inventory baseline
Week 2–3
Build the Scope 1 + 2 + 3 emissions inventory baseline with reduction roadmap and SBTi alignment.
3
DEI scorecard & TCFD disclosure
Week 3–4
Stand up the DEI scorecard (gender / geography / leadership) and the TCFD-aligned climate-risk disclosure.
4
SFDR Article 8 / 9 mapping
Week 4–5
Map company practice to SFDR Article 8 / 9 per LP requirement; close the highest-priority gaps.
5
Impact dashboard & board approval
Week 5–6
Build the impact metrics dashboard (jobs / lives / CO2e); secure board approval and LP-acceptance.
