Current state analysis:
  • assessment of corporate policies, strategies and internal sustainability management processes
  • review of non-financial reporting and ESG-related disclosures
  • analysis of stakeholder communications (investors, clients, regulators
Evaluation across key ESG pillars:
  • environmental aspects — management of own carbon footprint, assessment of Scope 1–2, consideration of Scope 3 (financed emissions)
  • social aspects — policies on labour rights, equality, engagement with clients and local communities
  • corporate governance — Board oversight of ESG and climate risks, integration of ESG into risk management and compliance, sustainable finance procedures
Alignment with international standards and practices:
  • GRI, SASB, TCFD, ISSB/IFRS S1–S2, ESRS, SDGs, UN Global Compact
  • sector-specific standards for financial institutions (PCAF, NZBA, PRI)
Benchmarking:
  • comparison with peer banks and industry leaders
  • analysis of positions in international ESG ratings (S&P Global CSA, MSCI ESG Ratings, Sustainalytics, Moody’s, Fitch, Refinitiv)
Gap analysis:
  • identification of discrepancies between current practices and global best practices
Stakeholder engagement:
  • interviews and surveys with executives, risk managers, compliance and business units to assess organisational maturity
Maturity rating system:
  • determination of maturity level (initial, developing, advanced, leading) for each ESG pillar
