Second-Party OpinionsAdd credibility to your sustainable debt financing framework.
Assessing risks and opportunities
Our Second-Party Opinions (SPOs) help issuers assess whether their financing framework or transaction aligns with industry standards — and meets criteria outlined in our own rigorous methodology — for defining green, social or sustainability bonds or loans.
Take steps to build credibility among investors with an independent assessment based on MSCI ESG Research’s methodology in alignment with industry standards.
Support investors seeking to manage sustainability and climate risk with increased transparency through additional disclosure.
Work with a dedicated team to explore financing models and maximize potential for meeting sustainable framework criteria when you bring bonds to market.
