Advancing social and environmental performance management for inclusive finance.
Cerise+SPTF is a joint venture of two leading global organizations dedicated to social and environmental performance management—a way of doing business that puts people and the planet at the center of every decision. Our signature product, the Universal Standards for Social and Environmental Performance Management, has defined best practices since 2012. All of our tools—audits and self-assessments, data and benchmarking, technical assistance financing, working groups, and more—reflect the real-world perspective of inclusive finance stakeholders. Cerise+SPTF believes in the power of getting started. Wherever you are on your social and environmental performance management journey—curious, unsure where to start, stuck on a certain point, or determined to grow from good to great— we will meet you where you are. And we will bring the tools you need to succeed.
Stay informed and inspired with regular updates on social and environmental performance management from all over the world. We won’t kill your inbox, and you can unsubscribe anytime.

Towards Responsible Business Conduct in Agriculture
Developed by Cerise+SPTF, the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), and partner organizations, the RAI Tool is key to helping investors promote a responsible, healthy, and sustainable agriculture and food sector. It can be used as a due diligence tool to let investors screen, monitor and report the responsible business practices of their agribusiness investees.
