Denominator’s DEI Categories, Scores, and Ratings
Denominator’s scores and ratings consider three dimensions 1) company, 2) industry and 3) country. Absolute ratings consider the conversion from scores to ratings in absolute terms (score interval) and are based on scores that go from 0-100 (with 0 being the lowest performance and 100 the highest performance). Relative ratings are based on scores in relative terms to the industry and country quartiles. With this, the relative performance compared to the industry and country of operation is taken into consideration before the conversion to ratings.
