Moody's published two additional appendices to our ESG cross-sector methodology. These appendices provide more detailed information on the principal considerations for assigning ESG Issuer Profile Scores (IPS) and Credit Impact Scores (CIS) to Enterprises (Non-financial corporates and Government Enterprises) and Regional and Local Governments (US states, US local governments - e.g. cities, counties - non-US regional and local governments), respectively.

In this webinar, Moody’s subject matter experts will explain our approach to the new ESG scores and some key highlights of the proposed methodology.

  • What are ESG Issuer Profile and Credit Impact Scores (IPS, CIS)?
  • How do ESG considerations impact fundamental credit ratings?
  • What metrics do analysts use in assigning scores?

Speakers:
  • Laura Acres, Managing Director, Corporate Finance
  • Laura Barrientos, Vice President – Senior Credit Officer, Credit Strategy & Standards

  • Khalid Husain, Vice President – Senior Analyst, Environmental, Social and Governance
  • Gene Fang, Associate Managing Director, Sovereign
  • Ian Lewis, Associate Managing Director, Corporate Finance & Project Infrastructure
