Social & Environmental Due Diligence

Summary

As part of the credit evaluation process for each client, Root Capital’s loan officers use our Social and Environmental Due Diligence Scorecards to evaluate the client’s social and environmental practices, as well as their ability to access alternate sources of finance. These tools include metrics developed by the Impact Reporting and Investment Standards (IRIS) that we report in our Quarterly Performance Reports and Performance Dashboard, but go substantially further in profiling clients' practices.
