The Partnership Will Use CSRHub’s Data To Integrate ESG Into Supply Chain Analysis

New York - August 25, 2020 – CSRHub, a leader in consensus ESG (Environment, Social, and Governance) ratings and information, announced today a partnership with Craft, the enterprise intelligence provider, to integrate data from CSRHub into Craft’s offerings. This integration will help supply chain managers build a 360-degree view of supplier ESG risk.

“The case for using corporate social responsibility measures as a leading indicator of company performance, and social and environmental impact has never been stronger. It is quickly becoming a key consideration in managing risk, driving customer satisfaction, and building ethical and resilient supply chains among our customers, said Ilya Levtov, founder and CEO of Craft. “We’re delighted to be working with CSRHub to incorporate its ESG ratings into Craft’s 360 degree view of every supplier that can be monitored on our platform.”

Recent climate, health, and social challenges have disrupted supply chains. Both companies see this partnership as a timely response to these challenges that could decrease supply chain risk and increase supply chain resilience.  

With ratings on 20,000 companies, CSRHub is a leader in consensus ESG ratings. “We expect to benefit from Craft’s strong customer relationships and its experience in supply chain management” said Cynthia Figge, CEO and Co-founder of CSRHub. “We are excited to bring high-value ESG data to Craft’s customers and enjoy being aligned with a company that shares our values.”

Goods Unite Us has spent thousands of hours vetting companies' political expenditures in federal elections. They will tell you about the donations made by the organization and its senior employees along with each company's exclusive Campaign Finance Reform Score. CSRHub measures the environmental, social and governance performance of thousands of companies by aggregating 700 sources to derive consensus ESG ratings.

Goods Unite Us and CSRHub have combined datasets to see if any correlations showed up in terms of political affiliation and ESG scores. And some did. 

Our new joint report, which to our knowledge is the first of its kind, is available here. In short: 

CSRHub, a leading provider of ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) consensus ratings, is pleased to announce it has partnered with Intrinio, a financial data marketplace that provides fintech data and applications for developers and investors. ESG data is becoming an important component of investment decision processes. Intrinio has partnered with CSRHub to help combine signals about corporate ESG / sustainability performance with the many other data sets it has curated for its system.

Both CSRHub and Intrinio are committed to making financial and ESG data affordable and easy to access so investors and analysts can save money and time building meaningful outcomes.

Investors and researchers increasingly want to integrate their financial data with ESG data for more efficient and impactful analysis. CSRHub data can be used to benchmark ESG performance, increase corporate market value, uncover portfolio opportunities and risks, back-test theories about ESG behavior, and integrate ESG trends into other Business Intelligence data sets.

Using a patented algorithm that aggregates and harmonizes disparate data from 690+ ESG sources, CSRHub generates a consensus score for the ESG performance of 19,000 companies from 134 industries in 143 countries. With many disparate sources of ESG information available, centralizing and interpreting ESG metrics has become burdensome for many firms. CSRHub streamlines ESG data and makes it useful and powerful.

“Partnering with Intrinio to deliver both their analytics and CSRHub’s ESG data to clients will enable investors to leverage powerful insights and enhance their decision-making processes,” said Cynthia Figge, CEO of CSRHub.
