Testimonials
What are our clients saying about us?
“Raison provided invaluable support in conducting our Double Materiality Assessment and gap assessment with exceptional professionalism. Their methodology, documentation, and structured approach, as well as their clear and knowledgeable communication, were outstanding. Additionally, our audit committee has highlighted that the presentation of the DMA results, gap assessment, and recommended roadmap was among the best they have seen.”
Magnus Blixt
Chief Financial Officer (CFO), CellaVision
“In the process of designing our fund, Raison was instrumental in helping us figure out how to make Article 9 operational, balancing pragmatism and compliance with the spirit of SFDR. We now work with Raison on all our impact due diligence projects – they are quick to get on the ball and work independently, while understanding and respecting the need to control time spend. As I see as more and more funds operating in this space, it is clear to me that Raison Consulting is absolutely best-in-class.”

We recommend Raison for their vast knowledge of the sustainability legislative landscape, complemented by a pragmatic approach to enabling compliance and impact.”
