Build Your Own ESG Score with the Inrate Data Lake
Institutional investors increasingly want ESG assessments tailored to their own investment philosophies, rather than relying exclusively on standard market ratings. With the Inrate Data Lake, users can combine hundreds of Inrate indicators across ESG ratings, controversies, climate, human rights, UNGC, OECD, revenue involvement and impact datasets to create custom scoring frameworks aligned with their investment objectives. The platform is designed to give investors greater transparency, flexibility and control over how sustainability information is incorporated into investment decisions. Development of the Data Lake and associated client interfaces continues to be a strategic focus at Inrate, with custom datasets and dashboards already being made available to clients.
New: OECD AI Principles Screening Solution
As artificial intelligence becomes embedded across industries, investors and financial institutions are increasingly looking for practical ways to assess alignment with responsible AI principles. Inrate is developing a new OECD AI Principles screening solution, mapping company-level indicators against the OECD framework and supporting investor due diligence, screening and stewardship activities. The solution will be supported by dedicated methodology documentation, sample datasets and integration into client-facing platforms.
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Controversies: What 14 Years of Data Tells Us

The study explores the sectors most frequently involved, the leading causes of controversies and the evolution of climate-related scrutiny over time. The findings reinforce the importance of independent controversy analysis in identifying climate-related risks that may not be fully reflected in company disclosures alone.
