Key Terms

gri technical
GRI (Global Reporting Initiative) is a set of widely used standards for how companies disclose sustainability information—environmental, social and governance practices—in a consistent way. For investors it acts like a common checklist or ingredients label, making it easier to compare companies’ non-financial risks and long-term resilience, assess transparency, and track whether promised sustainability actions are actually being carried out.
sasb technical
SASB stands for the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, an organization that created industry-specific guidelines for companies to report environmental, social and governance factors that are likely to affect their financial performance. Think of it as a standardized checklist that helps investors compare how well different companies manage risks like pollution, labor practices or product safety — similar to using a common recipe so you can fairly judge different cooks. Clear, consistent SASB disclosures make it easier for investors to spot hidden risks and long-term value drivers.
tcfd technical
A framework that guides companies on reporting how climate change and related policies, physical impacts, and market shifts affect their finances and business plans. It matters to investors because consistent, comparable disclosures act like a weather forecast for financial risk—helping assess which companies face greater climate-related danger or opportunity, improving decisions about value, risk allocation, and long-term planning.
issb technical
The ISSB (International Sustainability Standards Board) is an independent global body that creates common rules for companies to report environmental, social and governance information in a consistent way. For investors, those rules act like a standardized label on products—making it easier to compare risks and opportunities across companies, assess long-term resilience, and factor sustainability into valuation and investment decisions.
reit financial
A real estate investment trust (REIT) is a company that owns, operates, or finances income-producing real estate, like shopping centers, apartments, or office buildings. For investors, REITs offer a way to invest in real estate without having to buy property directly, often providing regular income through dividends. They function like a mutual fund for real estate, making it easier for people to add property investments to their portfolio.
