Ankit Langey - Aug 7 - - Dev Community

In the realm of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing, adherence to global standards and ethical principles is paramount. UNGC Screening, or United Nations Global Compact Screening, plays a vital role in ensuring that investments align with fundamental sustainability and human rights principles.

What is UNGC Screening?
UNGC Screening involves evaluating companies and their practices against the ten principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC). These principles cover areas such as human rights, labor standards, environmental stewardship, and anti-corruption. The goal is to screen out entities that do not meet these essential ethical and sustainability standards.

Key Benefits of UNGC Screening

Risk Mitigation: This screening helps avoid investing in companies that may pose reputational or operational risks due to non-compliance with UNGC principles.
