Sage Evaluates 11 GICS Sectors for Sustainability Risks and Opportunities 2H25

August 15, 2025 — At Sage, we assess 1,500 corporate issuers quarterly using our Sage Leaf Score® Methodology. This custom framework includes quantitative and qualitative analysis of industry-specific risks, third-party data, and a company’s individual sustainability practices. Through this assessment, Sage generates a Leaf Score for each company, representing its preparedness and performance across a range of sustainability indicators. Sage uses these scores to choose best-in-class issuers for inclusion in Sage portfolios.
