Anupam Ravi works as Senior Vice President at GIST, a company which follows a multi-capital approach for measuring performance of companies. Anupam has been working in the domain of economic valuations since a decade. During this period, he had the opportunity to be part of 25+ bespoke studies which uses the natural capital protocol’s framework to assess the impacts of the companies on the local and global environment.
One of the biggest challenges of natural capital impact valuation is the need of regional explicitness and the scalability, so that consistent framework and methodology can be applied to business operations across the globe. Anupam and his team at GIST have developed a set of methodologies which can be applied across the globe with a high level of regional specificity and granularity. The approach has been now applied to 3,000+ publicly listed companies across the globe and has a time series information on the size of natural capital externalities which these businesses generate.
