Measuring the SDG contributions of Private Markets investments

Product offering: SDI Private Markets Membership

In keeping with the mission of accelerating investments to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals we want to capture contributions in all asset classes. The ability to consistently measure contributions across asset classes further adds to delivering investment outcomes to end beneficiaries.

Whereas public market assets are held by many investors and have benchmarks with transparency on constituents, private market assets lack these features. It implies that portfolios are very diverse and may not overlap extensively. Moreover, information on proprietary investments is typically held confidentially, so that there is no data source the SDI AOP can rely on to extract the information necessary for classification. This therefore requires a different approach to enable users to start measuring their private market investments.

SDI Private Markets Template

The Design Authority organisations involved in the SDI AOP have already been classifying private market assets for some time now and have built precedents on how they have implemented this for their portfolios. Together with the SDI taxonomy this forms the basis for the SDI Private Markets Template, which is aimed to guide users to classify their private market investments robustly and consistent with the public market classification approach.
