How is the universe of topics defined in your double materiality analysis in Datamaran?

The topics displayed in your double materiality analysis are associated with the industries selected when setting up your analysis for each stream.

Some topics will not be relevant in the same stage for each company’s value chain; for example, Animal welfare can be relevant for some sectors but not for others.

There are also industry-specific topics that are relevant only to that particular industry and are therefore excluded from other industries. Those topics are:

  • Access to health care & medicine > Health Care 
  • Biotechnology & ethical considerations > Food & Beverage, Health Care, Resource Transformation   
  • Drug resistance & pharmaceuticals in the environment > Health Care 
  • Ethics of clinical trials > Health Care 
  • Financial access, literacy & advice > Financials
  • Holistic & patient-centric approach to health > Health Care
  • Outer space management > Resource Transformation and Technology & Communications
  • Responsible investing & financing > Financials
  • Solvency & financial management > Financials
