SDI Outcomes enhances investor insights by quantifying company outputs beyond basic revenue data, capturing metrics such as “avoided carbon emissions” and “people served.” Metrics span renewable energy, sustainable transportation, education access, healthcare, telecom services, and financial inclusion, across more than 1,600 publicly listed companies.

James Leaton, Research Director at SDI AOP, emphasized:

“The SDI Outcomes product was developed to meet client demand for this type of granular outputs data to help fight greenwashing concerns. Clients find it difficult to compare the data companies provide relating to outcomes as various methodologies are used. The SDI Outcomes approach takes care of the adjustments and validation for clients to produce consistent numbers.”

By delivering robust, geographically detailed outcomes data, SDI Outcomes supports precise decision-making, improves transparency, and helps asset managers and owners effectively track and report their progress towards global sustainability goals.
