How can I, as an investor, trust that the validation is accurate?

The blockchain provides the trustworthy storage of data and therefore mediation of the relationship and transfer of information between the Issuer and the Investor. Investors are presented with a transparent means of verification of green debt deliveries. It is up to the investor to assess the trustworthiness of the validation. Validators may in turn register GAW accounts and demonstrate their trustworthiness and track record on the blockchain for issuers and investors.

Validation

What does validation refer to in Green Assets Wallet?

Currently, the data that are validated on Green Assets Wallet can be seen in the project view column. The issuer selects the verification process today, and it can take the form of a certification from a known standards body. Typically, the data is either a document (a consultancy report, a certificate, an audit, etc), or a photograph (a satellite image or other).

When data is uploaded onto the platform, there is an option to upload a third party validation. This validation can either be uploaded as a document by the issuer or requested from a listed validator by requesting a report on the platform. 

When registering a Green Bond Framework and related green bond(s) on Green Assets Wallet the Issuer defines a set of green commitments (based on criteria in the green bond framework and/or other important guiding principles). The commitments that apply to a specific project are chosen and will be subject to follow-up and proof of delivery to investors. E.g. “Installing solar power plants in location X”.

Process for validation of delivery on commitments: When registering a project on Green Assets Wallet, the Issuer defines which green commitments are applicable to the project and how it intends to validate delivery on these commitments. This includes defining what type of proof (for example, a report, a satellite photo, etc.) that will be provided, and what entity will provide the proof (either a third party, or the issuer). These promises of data to be provided are stored on the blockchain and visible to investors.

Validation of delivery on commitment is met: The pre-defined proof of delivery on a commitment is submitted by the authorised entity (either the issuer or a third-party validator). The data object is stored on the blockchain and visible to investors. For example, satellite footage of solar panels.

What data are validated on Green Assets Wallet?

Currently, the data that are validated on Green Assets Wallet can be seen in the project view column.

Typically, the data is either a document (a consultancy report, a certificate, an audit, etc), or a photograph (a satellite image or other).

What is a validator in Green Assets Wallet?

A validator is an independent organization qualified to verify claims made by issuers, including bond framework documents (second opinion providers), impact reports (assurance providers) and impact data (certification bodies and other independent expert bodies).

Validation in Green Assets Wallet refers to the process by which the Issuer provides proof of delivery on commitments. The commitments refer to promises made to investors about the use of proceeds raised via green debt instruments, and are typically found in the Green Bond Framework or equivalent document.

How can I provide validation on Framework level instead of project level?

To upload validation on Framework level in the Green Assets Wallet, an issuer can use assurance documents that already are in place in today’s green bond market. These can be uploaded under “Supporting Documentation” on the issuer profile. This assurance is usually performed by an audit firm and at aggregate (bond/portfolio) level. The project validation in the Green Assets Wallet adds value as it provides greater transparency and more detailed level information about underlying projects. 

For issuers that cannot reveal their project specific data, the framework level Assurance document will be very important. For other actors it might be fully possible to provide validation of all projects. The ambition is that the Green Assets Wallet should be flexible enough to accommodate the different needs and situations of the actors in the market.  

How do I engage a third party to validate?

When creating a validation report you will be required to select a validator from a drop-down menu listing all validators with active GAW accounts. This means that currently the validator must have an active account prior to report creation. Please contact us below  to set up a validator account.

How do I get my impact data validated?

When data is uploaded onto the platform, there is an option to upload a third party validation. This validation can either be uploaded as a document by the issuer or requested from a listed validator by requesting a report on the platform.

The validation process follows below steps and commitments defined as:
When registering a Green Bond Framework and related green bond(s) on Green Assets Wallet the Issuer defines a set of green commitments (based on criteria in the green bond framework and/or other important guiding principles). The commitments that apply to a specific project are chosen and will be subject to follow-up and proof of delivery to investors. E.g. “Installing solar power plants in location X”.

Validation of delivery on commitment is met: The pre-defined proof of delivery on a commitment is submitted by the authorised entity (either the issuer or a third-party validator). The data object is stored on the blockchain and visible to investors. For example, satellite footage of solar panels.

How do I know if data are validated?

In the project view, either in the list of projects or in the project page, there is a clear section that allows you to see if there has been third party validation of some or all of the data provided about the project.

Does the technology validate that an actor or any given piece of information is trustworthy?

No, the Green Assets Wallet does not sign off on the trustworthiness or quality of the information provided in the Validation section. The Green Assets Wallet cannot take responsibility for the quality of the data submitted by a user. It provides a system for actors to exchange information in a transparent manner but it doesn’t take away responsibility from any user.

The Issuer is responsible for submitting relevant and quality data and should be incentivised to do so, as it will be stored in a transparent way on the blockchain. Investors have the responsibility to make their own judgement on the relevance and quality of the information provided by the Issuer. The Green Assets Wallet provides space for Issuers to ask third party “validators”, such as audit firms, expert bodies, etc to submit validation data in order to strengthen the credibility of the Validation. What validator that has provided the validation is visible to investors on the project profile.
