Common Good Marketplace Named to the 2025 ESGFinTech100 – Building Markets That Work for Everyone

November 11, 2025

Common Good Marketplace has been named to the 2025 ESGFinTech100, recognizing the most innovative technology companies advancing measurable and transparent impact in global finance.

Now in its fourth year, the ESGFinTech100 highlights companies creating tools that help institutions better understand, verify, and invest in outcomes that matter. CGM was selected for its work in building the world’s first digital marketplace for tradable social outcomes through Verified Impact Assets™ (VIAs), which represent measurable improvements in people’s lives.

Reimagining the “S” in ESG

Around the world, companies are facing growing scrutiny about how they measure and report their social impact. Regulations such as the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) have accelerated the push for transparency, while in the U.S., debates over ESG compliance have created new uncertainty.

At CGM, we believe that whether or not such frameworks are required or adopted, the world needs markets that work for everyone. Markets that reward effective organizations, empower development rather than dependency, and direct capital to where it delivers real results.

This vision guides our work: creating a system where corporate sustainability and enterprise value are grounded in verifiable human capital and where economic incentives align with human and societal flourishing—the common good.

From ESG Noise to Verified Outcomes

Environmental metrics have become more standardized, but social outcomes remain fragmented and often unverifiable. CGM fills that gap by providing a trusted infrastructure for measuring, valuing, and trading verified social outcomes.

Through Verified Impact Assets™, high-impact organizations (Suppliers) have their results verified by independent auditors and issued as standardized assets. Corporations, investors, and philanthropies (Buyers) can then purchase these assets to credibly demonstrate social impact in their reports or strategic portfolios.

By separating the roles of supplier, verifier, and buyer, CGM increases trust, reduces due diligence burdens, and makes social outcomes measurable, comparable, and tradable.

Beyond Compliance – Toward the Common Good

Being named to the ESGFinTech100 is more than recognition of innovation in sustainable finance. It affirms a growing belief that the future of markets lies in valuing what truly matters: people, communities, and shared prosperity.

Our goal is simple—create the tools and systems that help markets serve the common good.
