Our Four-Pillar Assurance Framework
Our methodology integrates global best practices (using benchmarks such as ICMA Principles, Climate Bonds Standard, and IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards) with local market needs, ensuring credibility that resonates with both domestic and international stakeholders. The framework is structured around four core pillars:
Environment
We verify your organization's environmental performance, with an emphasis on stewardship areas like natural resource conservation, biodiversity protection, and comprehensive pollution prevention and control. This assurance helps you proactively identify and manage both environmental risks and opportunities to reduce your ecological footprint.
Social
We assess your business's impact on workers, communities, and society, verifying comprehensive impact and reporting on key social factors. This includes human capital topics like labor standards, workplace safety, diversity, and gender equality, as well as social and ethical elements such as human rights compliance and anti-corruption policies across all operations and supply chains.
Governance
We examine the efficacy of your corporate governance systems, policies, and structures that guide decision-making. This comprehensive review covers board oversight of ESG issues, robust risk management integration, anti-corruption safeguards, and the overall transparency and accountability framework.
Climate
We assure the credibility and robustness of your climate-related strategies and commitments—including those focused on climate change mitigation and adaptation. Our process includes verifying comprehensive reporting on all financially material climate risks and opportunities across your value chain, as required by IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures.
