Moody’s Investors Service’s updated ESG Cross Sector Methodology introduces new ESG issuer profile scores and credit impact scores for issuers across corporates, infrastructure, public finance and sovereigns. We recently also published a Request for Comment (RFC) for financial institutions.

In this session, the Moody’s ESG Integration team will review the approach to the new ESG issuer profile scores and credit impact scores and provide some key insights into the impact of ESG on credit ratings.

Presented by Swami Venkataraman, CFA, Senior Vice President, Manager – ESG, Analytics and Integration

Topics include:

  • What are MIS’ ESG issuer profile scores (IPSs) and credit impact scores (CISs)?
  • What is the process for assigning these scores?
  • What is the distribution of scores assigned thus far?
  • How do ESG considerations impact credit ratings?

  1. Further insight to the challenges in the market thus far
  2. The common themes across Europe
  3. Remediation and best practice approaches
