RobecoSAM's Country Sustainability Ranking
Robeco and RobecoSAM have worked together to develop a comprehensive and systematic ESG ranking framework for countries, designed to complement sovereign bond ratings developed by traditional rating agencies.
Country sustainability analysis offers an alternative view into an economy’s underlying change drivers and provides investors with insights into a country’s strengths and weaknesses on a broad selection of environmental, social and governance indicators.
Ireland’s score improved by 0.09 to 7.35 and is almost back to its pre-crisis level. It also climbed 3 ranks to the 6th place, overtaking Germany, showing that the country is back on track following a deep crisis. Ireland stands out as a prime example of a country that has successfully introduced decisive reforms, markedly improving its ESG profile over recent years.
