It was an honour and a privilege to speak and moderate at the Impact Summit of IPEM Paris 2024. We had the opportunity to discuss how and why Impact investing has grown to such levels and how to measure it using internal and external solution such as Simpl. There’s a lot more to accomplish to go beyond the niche!

I'll be speaking at IPEM Paris 2024 on Tuesday 10th at 4:30pm about Impact evaluation in the realm of education and social inclusion. I'll be happy to showcase how we've developed our methodology along those lines at Simpl. Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to meet up there! Looking forward to seeing familiar and new faces!

🔍 People often ask us how our benchmark works... At Simpl, our benchmark is a key element of how we enable businesses to measure and enhance their impact performance. How our benchmark works: ✔ Extensive data collection: We collect information on thousands of factors in every country and industry globally. This thorough strategy guarantees that our benchmark is strong and applicable. ✔ Advanced methodology: Our specialists employ mathematical models, machine learning, and data science methods to examine and develop accurate grading scales for each criteria, making sure that every aspect is taken into consideration. These separate scales are combined to form a single, all-encompassing grading scale. ✔ Tailored evaluation: Our system gathers specific data from customers using customised inquiries that we compare to a standard to determine our overall rating. This evaluation enables us to precisely gauge performance,  considering the unique circumstances, project specifics and limitations of individual clients. Additionally, we take into account the industry of the asset and the market in which it operates, providing a comprehensive and tailored assessment. How it’s used in our platform : Our evaluation provides specific ratings for each factor, enabling you to recognise strong points and highlight areas needing enhancement. By examining how your performance measures up to the benchmark, you can identify opportunities to improve your sustainability strategy, make well-informed decisions, and reach your objectives. At Simpl, our benchmark is not just a tool, but an active component in driving positive impact. 👉 Find out how our benchmark can enhance your sustainability initiatives by reaching out to us at www.simpl.tools

This meme may be tongue-in-cheek, but for many it will be all too relatable. Just as ESG teams begin to have a good handle on SFDR and PAI reporting, the regulation is set to change... Consultations were held last year and, just last week, the ESAs published a joint opinion giving their recommendations for the new and improved SFDR. Amongst other things, the ESAs: 👉 Recommend the introduction of actual sustainability and transition focused financial product categories, to replace the Article 8 and 9 de facto categories; 👉 Suggest introducing a grading scale to reflect product categories - almost like a nutri-score for financial products; 👉 Suggest that “sustainable investment” under SFDR and Taxonomy-aligned investment under the EU Taxonomy could exist in parallel, given the difference in the approach between the two regulations (i.e. principles-based vs science-based); and 👉 Again emphasised the need to extend the EU Taxonomy to cover social sustainability. Like Alice faced with conflicting signposts, these recommendations may not necessarily represent the true path forward though - that will only start to become clear when the European Commission publishes their proposed reforms. Keeping up to date with regulatory changes can be a real headache, particularly while trying to ensure compliance with the requirements already in place. The benefit of using Simpl to prepare your regulatory reporting is that we update our tool in real-time in line with regulatory changes. More than just a data collection or a data visualisation tool, Simpl empowers you to ensure compliance with even the most changeable of regulations. https://lnkd.in/d9e6Z_DJ

Comment présenter Simpl en trois minutes ? 1/ Présenter les enjeux du secteur des infrastructures (classe d’actifs avec un besoin de vision long-terme, importance de la mise en place de mesures d’amélioration tout au long du cycle de vie, et notamment en phase de développement). 2/ Parler de la valeur ajoutée des données ESG une fois collectées, vérifiées et qualifiées et ce à différentes fins (réglementaires, suivi de performance avant et après investissement). 3/ Insister sur la pertinence de nos services grâce à notre plateforme personnalisable. On est utile quand on parle le bon language et qu’on mesure les enjeux des acteurs du secteur, des développeurs aux exploitants en passant par les investisseurs. Merci Institut de la finance durable et à Finance Innovation de m’avoir permis de présenter Simpl lors du #ParisFinanceForum2024 organisé par Paris Europlace. À très vite pour poursuivre ces discussions passionnantes avec d’autres entrepreneuses et entrepreneurs du #challengefintechfortomorrow
