Preqin has partnered with impact technology solutions firm Impact Institute to improve ESG and impact data transparency in the alternative markets.
The firms will provide asset-level impact data for the enhancement of deal origination workflows and insight into investment portfolio impacts in the private capital markets. Through this, they aim to enhance firms’ and investors’ decision-making and impact analysis operations.
Close to 300,000 private companies will be analysed through Impact Institute’s Global Impact Database (GID), a quantitative database offering insights into social, environmental and human impacts.
GID will be embedded into Preqin’s ESG Solutions datasets, which offer granular insights into impacts within global value chains.
Jaclyn Bouchard, executive vice president and head of ESG solutions and corporate responsibility at Preqin, says: “By combining the strengths of Preqin and Impact Institute, we're delivering reliable data in an intuitive format, empowering investors to seamlessly incorporate impact metrics into their decision-making processes.”
Adrian de Groot Ruiz, CEO of Impact Institute, comments: “We believe the alternatives community drives financial innovation. By merging impact data with financial insights, we're shaping the future of investment decision-making, empowering investors in alternatives to drive positive change with a unique tool that redefines how we measure and manage return, risk and impact.”
