ONLY SECTION 3 ( i will attach past assignments)
Instructions
For your final assessment submission, you will decide whether you would invest in your chosen company or recommend the company for investment purposes. You are required to decide if the company is an attractive investment based on your weekly analysis of eight evaluation criteria:
Sustainability efforts and initiatives
Business model
Corporate strategy
Management and corporate governance practices
Impacts
Reporting quality
Financial performance
Value drivers and capital
This assessment consists of three sections. You will reference and incorporate information and conclusions from prior course assignments in each of the three sections. The first section requires you to analyze and score your chosen company on several sustainable finance considerations. In the second section, you will explain and justify your investment decision. In the third and final section, you will present your analysis and decision as you would to inform investors.
Section 1: Complete the investment decision matrix.
Section 2: Answer the questions posed under the eight categories in the detailed instructions.
