Disclosure Integrity Score
Using data coming through ComplianceIQ™, it analyzes your alignment with frameworks such as GRI, ESRS, SASB, and TSRS, assesses the balance between quantitative and qualitative data, reviews the status of your DNSH and SDG disclosures, and consolidates all of these into a single, interpretable score.
Reports and disclosures are collected
Financial reports, sustainability reports, website content, and relevant policy documents are brought into the system.
Matching against standards is performed
This content is mapped, item by item, against the relevant requirements of frameworks such as GRI, ESRS, SASB, and TSRS.
Coverage and alignment rates are calculated
The system identifies which topics are disclosed, where gaps exist, and calculates an alignment percentage for each framework.
Quantitative–qualitative balance and disclosure checks are performed
The share of quantitative data is assessed together with the presence and consistency of DNSH and SDG disclosures.
Score and improvement outputs are generated
The Disclosure Integrity Score and its sub-indicators are created, and a summary improvement list is generated showing disclosure gaps that need to be closed and priority action areas.
Quantifies your reports and disclosures into a single core score and supporting sub-indicators.
Highlights where you are strong and where you are weaker under each framework through coverage and alignment rates.
Shows how much of your disclosures are supported by numerical data and makes improvement areas more concrete.
Helps you anticipate compliance and reputational risks by identifying missing, weak, or inconsistent DNSH/SDG disclosures.
This disclosure-quality score forms the reference layer on which other Cindeks indicators and compliance analyses are built.
What exactly does this score measure?
It measures the scope of your ESG disclosures, your level of alignment with standards such as GRI, ESRS, SASB, and TSRS, the balance between quantitative and qualitative data, and the status of your DNSH/SDG disclosures, then summarizes them into a single Disclosure Integrity Score with sub-indicators.
Which documents are analyzed?
Publicly available sources are analyzed, such as annual reports, sustainability reports, ESG content on your website, and policy and commitment documents.
Can it also be used for small and medium-sized companies?
Yes. Even if the report set is more limited, the score is generated using the same methodology based on available disclosures, and missing or weak areas are flagged as improvement opportunities.
Where is this score used in practice?
The Disclosure Integrity Score is used as a reference for “disclosure quality” in bank and investor presentations, ESG/integrated reports, and internal management dashboards.
