Finance Eligibility Score
Finance Eligibility Score is the core Cindeks™ score that shows a company’s or project’s eligibility and readiness for green finance.
Using Green Finance Suite™ data, it brings together alignment with the ICMA Green, Social, and Sustainability Bond Principles, EU Taxonomy technical criteria matches, SDG contribution level, and alignment with bank and investor assessment criteria under a single score.
Financing scope is defined
The company or project is selected, and the target financing type is defined, such as a loan, bond, or sukuk.
Eligibility criteria are matched
ICMA principles, EU Taxonomy technical criteria, and bank and investor expectations are matched to the company or project.
Technical eligibility is checked
Technical criteria matches and gaps are identified based on project characteristics, activities, and expenditure items.
Impact and SDG contribution are assessed
The number and strength of SDG contributions are evaluated, and the impact view to be included in the financing file is clarified.
Score and eligibility summary are generated
The Finance Eligibility Score is created, and a summary of “eligible / conditionally eligible / not eligible” is presented together with a list of improvement areas.
Brings eligibility together under a single score to provide a fast and comparable view.
Shows, through technical matching, which criteria you are strong in and where gaps remain.
Presents the assessment in a framework aligned with the decision logic of financiers.
Makes the project’s impact visible and strengthens the justification for financing.
Brings together the outputs of Project Eligibility Analyzer, SDG Impact Scorer, and Suitability Matrix into a single eligibility score, and generates a core reference for the Credit Decision Hub and Monitoring & Clauses Engine.
What does “eligibility” mean in this score?
It summarizes, under a single score, the company’s or project’s level of alignment with sustainable finance criteria. The result shows both the eligibility level and the missing criteria.
Which frameworks are considered?
ICMA principles, EU Taxonomy technical criteria, the visibility of SDG contribution, and bank/investor assessment expectations are used together.
What are the main inputs for the calculation?
The key inputs are the project or company definition, activity and expenditure items, impact indicators, and the relevant document set, including evidence.
How should the result be read?
Alongside the “eligible / conditionally eligible / not eligible” summary, the system shows which criteria raise or lower the score. This structure directly points to the improvement areas in the application file.
Where is it used within Green Finance Suite?
It converts the outputs of modules such as Project Eligibility Analyzer and SDG Impact Scorer into a single eligibility score, and creates a reference for the Credit Decision Hub and Monitoring & Clauses Engine.
