Exploring ESG Targets Set by Peers & Competitors

[Benchmark module]

Datamaran's Targets feature provides business leaders with an immediate, data-backed view of their peers and competitors who have set time-bound and measurable targets across 100 ESG topics.

As mentioned in public disclosures, this new feature aggregates and ranks these measurable and time-bound "targets" to better align with industry best practices and international framework requirements. This invaluable information serves as the foundation for strategic guidance to company leaders in determining their future targets.

To generate your ESG Targets analysis and begin exploring your peers' and competitors' ESG targets, you first need to set up a benchmark analysis. 

1. Go to the Benchmark module.

2. If this is your first time, click "Get started"; otherwise, click the "Create new" option in the menu next to the analysis name.

3. Name your analysis.

4. Select the specific companies to include in your analysis. Be aware, you can also select countries and industries for benchmarking disclosing practices, but in the target feature, you will only see the comparison against the companies selected.

5. Click "Save & Run analysis" to generate your analysis.

6. You will see a chart benchmarking your disclosing practices on ESG topics against your peers.

7. Go to the Targets tab once you have the Benchmark analysis.

8. Click the purple dots in the table to explore your ESG topic-based targets and how these compare to your peers and competitors.

9. In the Topic detailed view, you can explore the specific mentions of your targets to those of your peers and competitors. Individually select the report and the target you want to explore and see a new tab with the mentions of the target within the selected report.
