Wise Responder empowers social investments and sustainable human development goals by providing social metrics for financial institutions, investors, companies, and governments to tackle the world’s declared number one goal: United Nations SDG1 – No Poverty. In a world where most social metrics are often bartered agreement by agreement, Wise Responder’s multidimensional poverty index (MPI) metrics and benchmark SDG1 Index facilitate the connection of large investment pools to effectively targeted initiatives with enhanced impact reporting. Companies and government organizations can make objective, metrics-driven decisions that improve sustainable investing impact, reduce business and operational risks, and foster economic growth. The SDG1 Index provides licensed users with standardized metrics, comparable measures across countries, a suite of measures to proactively respond to the United Nations’ SDG Framework, and a means through which to adhere to Articles 8 and 9 Funds of the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR). The SDG1 Index officially launches in Q3 2022. The Index is an inferred index that estimates acute poverty in over 100 developing countries and updates quarterly—a frequency never before available. It enhances sovereign risk analysis and is available as a benchmark for sustainability-linked financing. The Index estimates the Global Multidimensional Poverty Index developed by Oxford University’s Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
