Trillium Receives “5 Star” Company Rating from GIIRS
November 26, 2013: Trillium Asset Management is pleased to announce that our firm has received a “GIIRS 5 Star” rating for 2013, placing Trillium in the top quintile of GIIRS-rated companies.
GIIRS (Global Impact Investing Rating System) is an independent third-party system for assessing the social and environmental impact of developed and emerging market companies and funds.
The GIIRS methodology scores companies’ key performance indicators relevant to the company’s industry, geography, size, and social mission on a scale of 1 – 5 stars, in the following impact areas:
- Governance
- Workers
- Community
- Environment
For over 30 years, Trillium has strived to achieve the same level of diligence and reporting that we ask of companies with whom we interact. We believe that GIIRS, with its comprehensive and transparent system for assessing the social and environmental impact of developed and emerging market companies, can facilitate the flow of capital and provide leadership on judging impact performance as a public good.
