Proprietary methodology
IBIST®
The Impact Bridge Impact Scoring Tool is a 100% proprietary framework that assesses how funds and investments align with IB impact standards across three dimensions: beneficialness, intentionality and measurability. The tool is built around 65 qualitative and quantitative questions grouped into 15 categories.
-
Beneficialness
Real contribution to a social or environmental challenge - who benefits and how.
-
Intentionality
Impact generated by design and embedded in strategy, validated by our Impact Committee.
-
Measurability
Rigorous measurement aligned with GIIN and SFDR Article 9 standards.
