ESG Relevance Scores - issued by Fitch Ratings - identify the relevance and materiality of environmental, social and governance elements to credit rating decisions.
The highest ESG.RS score is 5.
This indicates that a factor is unambiguously causing a change to a current rating level.
The lowest ESG.RS score is 1.
A score of 1 means a factor is currently irrelevant - both to the issuer and the sector - from a credit perspective.
