Metrics

IRIS Catalog of Metrics

IRIS metrics are designed to measure the social, environmental and financial performance of an investment.

To use IRIS metrics—and the resulting data—as part of the investment management process, IRIS metrics should be used and analyzed in generally accepted sets and according to well-defined objectives.

To access generally accepted Core Metrics Sets by Theme or Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), set up a profile. 

Filter based on your investment priorities and focus areas.
