Second Party Opinion (SPO) Analysis
In a rapidly evolving sustainability landscape, greenwashing risk is real – and so is the demand for credible, independent validation. A Second Party Opinion (SPO) provides that assurance, offering an objective assessment of your ESG frameworks, financing instruments or sustainability strategies before they are presented to the market.
Our SPO analysis covers:
Use of proceeds – Verifying that funds are directed toward eligible, impactful green or social projects with clear additionality.
Process for project evaluation and selection – Assessing the robustness and transparency of internal criteria.
Management of proceeds – Reviewing tracking, allocation, and reporting mechanisms.
Reporting commitments – Evaluating the frequency, granularity, and comparability of post-issuance disclosures.
Alignment with applicable standards – Including ICMA Green Bond Principles, ASEAN Green Bond Standards, EU Taxonomy.
Deliverables include a detailed SPO report with a clear opinion statement, a gap analysis with actionable recommendations, and optional post-issuance support to monitor ongoing alignment and credibility.
