ESG data for private funds

Collecting it once, from the same templates as financial KPIs, and reporting it consistently.

By SRM, Executive Director · Updated October 2026

How do private funds collect ESG data?

Most collect ESG metrics from portfolio companies annually or quarterly through templates — often aligned to frameworks LPs request — alongside financial KPIs, then aggregate them for LP reporting and questionnaires.

Use the same collection process

Ask for ESG metrics in the same templates and portal as financial KPIs to avoid a second request cycle.

Be specific

Define each metric, its unit and its period; ask for evidence where LPs will.

Regulatory context

Requirements vary by jurisdiction and LP base; confirm which frameworks and disclosures apply to your funds with counsel.
