\"\"<\/a>Zurich and Geneva, April 9th 2013 \u2014 Swiss agencies Inrate and Covalence announce their strategic collaboration in the field of environmental, social and governance (ESG) analysis of stock-quoted companies. The cooperation gives Inrate access to up-to-date research on controversial issues.<\/p>\n

As of early 2013, Covalence provides Inrate with regular up-to-date research on controversial issues such as corruption cases, food scandals or human rights violations. The monitoring of these topics is part of the Covalence ethical reputation tracking using international media and diversified online sources.<\/p>\n

The regular monitoring of controversial issues is essential for investors who want to consider ESG issues in their investment decisions. Clients of rating agencies such as Inrate do need this information in order to judge the relevance of certain company news and developments and for being able to quickly and adequately react to them.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were looking for a reliable partner who was able to meet our quality requirements for the controversies monitoring\u201d, explained Philippe Spicher, CEO of Inrate. \u201cCovalence has a 10-years track record and an excellent reputation in the market. This is why we decided to enter a strategic collaboration. Besides, we want to use the partnership to develop new ESG products together in the near future.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dWorking with Inrate represents a strong mark of recognition of our controversies monitoring which is part of our ethical reputation measurement approach\u201d, said Antoine Mach, Director of Covalence. \u201cFurthermore, we are looking forward to partner with Inrate in the field of ESG research & development.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the past years, Covalence has developed a unique combination of automated content processing of texts in original language with qualitative assessment by an international team of analysts. This allows Covalence to evaluate large amounts of data sources within a short time.<\/p>\n
