Treasury Management International (TMI) | Scientific Climate Indices receives Special Recognition at the TMI Technology Innovation Awards 2026Feature | January 2026

We’re proud to share that Scientific Portfolio has received Special Recognition for Innovation Lab Solution at the TMI Technology Innovation Awards 2026. This acknowledgement from Treasury Management International (TMI) reinforces the importance of bridging robust financial research with day-to-day investment decision-making—especially as investors increasingly need to assess risk, performance, and sustainability together.

What Scientific Climate Indices does

Scientific Climate is an independent, research-driven platform designed to help investment professionals analyse and construct equity portfolios from both financial and sustainability perspectives. Developed within EDHEC Business School’s research ecosystem, the platform aims to present the most relevant ESG information in a clear, usable format—supporting both portfolio review and new investment proposals. By combining quantitative analytics with sustainability assessments, Scientific Climate Indices helps investors navigate real-world trade-offs between financial objectives and sustainability goals—using an approach that is independent, structured, and research-backed, based on a double-materiality framework.

Scientific Climate Indices is designed to help institutional investors and asset managers:

  • Analyse risk and performance using forward-looking insights that go beyond past returns.
  • Evaluate climate and sustainability impacts as part of the investment decision process and identify trade-offs with competing financial objectives.
  • Detect risk concentrations and assess factor exposures to enhance portfolio resilience.
  • Incorporate climate risk into portfolio analysis, integrating extra-financial datasets into traditional financial metrics.

“Our role is to provide a solid and accessible framework that enables investors to design and implement sustainability and climate-alignment policies.” 
— Benjamin Herzog, Chief Executive Officer, Scientific Climate Indices

“Our mission is to provide investors with tools that enable them to analyze and build their equity portfolios independently, clearly, and in real time.”
— Shahyar Safaee, Deputy CEO and Business Development Director, Scientific Climate Indices
