GIST uses a science-based approach across four capitals — natural, human, social, and produced — to measure and value corporate impacts in monetary terms.

FNZ head of sustainability Vian Sharif said: “The allocation of capital is critical to driving the change required to transition to net-zero and building a more sustainable economy and society. By democratising information on the impact of portfolios, FNZ Impact empowers investors, their advisers and wealth managers to contribute to a sustainable future for the next generation through their investment decisions.”

GIST founder & CEO Pavan Sukhdev said: “Our shared mission is to embed GIST impact methodology and algorithms into every responsible investor’s toolkit.

“There has never been greater urgency for investors and corporations to recognise and quantify all dimensions of investment impacts, and in doing so, to redefine corporate performance.”
