Methodology
This website contains information about the financial exclusions by 87 financial institutions in 16 countries, covering 4842 companies from 120 countries.
The exclusion lists were retrieved, and compiled into one large dataset. The downloadable version of the exclusion list has source information including all the source documents.
The motivations of exclusions varied in terminology between different financial institutions. This research created standardized motivation categories. This website only includes companies that have been listed by name on an exclusion list. It does not include un-named companies that have been excluded from finance through sector exclusions.
Only exclusions that apply to all investments and/or all financing at a financial institution have been included.
