"In private equity, ESG due diligence isn't a luxury—it's a necessity, essential for mitigating risks, attracting responsible investors, and sustaining growth."
The core challenge in any PE deal is maximizing profitability, making risk mitigation crucial. Thorough and robust due diligence is invaluable, helping investors pinpoint various potential risks, including financial, tax, and IT concerns. Moreover, it is essential to consider ESG risk factors, given the increasing prominence of ESG legislation and directives worldwide. Besides that, a lack of ESG performance improvements is the most dominant reason Limited Partners walk away from investments (Bain & Company, 2022).
In general, General Partners face two main challenges:
- Difficulty quantifying and monitoring ESG Performance
- A lack of harmonized ESG Reporting Standards
