Malk partners with the Integrated Disclosure Project
We’re thrilled to announce that Malk Partners (part of SLR Consulting) has joined the Integrated Disclosure Project as our Premier Thought Leadership Partner.
Driving Enhanced Transparency for Sustainability
The Integrated Disclosure Project (IDP) Templates provides borrowers with a harmonised and standardised means to report sustainability information to their lenders. Use of the Templates will streamline the disclosure process for borrowers and enable lenders to receive consistent data from sponsored and non-sponsored borrowers across the private credit, syndicated and real estate loan markets. By providing a global baseline for sustainability-related information requests in private credit, sysndicated and real estate debt transactions, the Templates will encourage more consistent reporting and support material comparison across the industry.
The IDP Templates offer advantages to all market stakeholders:
- For investors: the IDP templates will improve the consistency of disclosure to investors, enhancing their ability to identify industry-specific sustainability risks (sourced from SASB Standards) in their credit portfolios and compare data across alternative asset managers more consistently.
- For borrowers: the IDP template will provide borrowers with greater certainty on the sustainability indicators that are most relevant to lenders. This will allow borrowers to concentrate on these disclosures rather than respond to a multitude of similar questionnaires.
- For credit fund managers: the IDP templates will support the ability of credit fund managers to engage with borrowers and issuers on disclosure as well as develop efficient investor reporting processes.
