“Valuation of non-financial capitals is the first step to acknowledge externalities in businesses. Our relationship with GIST Impact over the last four years has helped us with a good foundation in assessing and understanding the valuation and impacts of our natural capital; this, in turn has supported our ability to communicate with diverse stakeholders, internally and externally. The team at GIST brings in a long track record of expertise in this space and is always forthcoming to support us with customized insights for our requirements”
Narayan P.S. , Vice President and Global Head – Sustainability, Wipro Ltd.
“We have always known there are invisible values from our business and operations, besides the annual net profit and loss that we typically report, but we didn’t have a tool to visualise and report it.
GIST provided us a full picture of the value we deliver to our stakeholders. We wanted to take the lead (in the industry) and this has helped us on the way.”
Lena Sammeli, Project Lead Sustainability, Sveaskog
“We searched the globe for ideas and leaders who could help us. GIST is at the leading edge of putting thought into practice.
The researchers have solid business experience. GIST met our expectations brilliantly and helped us advance our thinking about sustainability.”
Francis Pamminger, Manager, Research and Innovation, Yarra Valley Water

Team SpotlightRegulatory requirements are mostly around consistent disclosure. Given that disclosure we calculate impacts and create benchmarks and time series.
ESG metrics rate companies on a variety of factors including how ambitious their targets are, how often they talk about sustainability, or how their greenhouse gas emissions compare to their competitors.
Impact metrics quantify companies’ real footprints on the environment and society, both positive and negative, planned and unplanned.
Impact starts where ESG metrics stop. For example, where ESG assesses a company’s water use, impact measurement translates this into the resulting change in availability of clean water and values the impact, such as the costs of more infectious diseases and malnutrition.
By quantifying impacts, business leaders understand what is important and material, which enables investments to be prioritised and risks to be mitigated.
Investment is all about risk and reward. ESG metrics are qualitative and can only be arbitrarily included in such an assessment, but impact metrics are calculated as monetary units and may be seamlessly integrated into earnings forecasts and financial valuations.
By tracking impacts as money, stakeholders have a simple means of comparing companies and measuring progress over time.
