Brief description of the data offering

Thomas Schumann Capital's mission is to provide investors, asset managers, and financial institutions with the tools and transparency they need to incorporate financial water risk into investment strategies, enabling them to achieve sustainable equity market performance. Water usage and stewardship are a source of major financial risk that is largely absent from equity valuations today. This risk directly translates to earnings risk, which can negatively impact stock prices and investment performance in the future. If water risk remains unaccounted for in benchmarks, investors have little or no reliable means to reduce exposure to companies with high water risk. TSC’s aim was to quantify water risk and build company rankings fueled by data on water utilization, water stewardship, and environmental controversies.
