Social Value Survey

Following the publication of our first Perspectives Paper in this series on Social Value in November 2020, the IVSC’s Social Value Working Group has issued a further paper to explore some of the issues in more detail.

This second paper in the series examines whether Social Value can be a basis of value, the difference between Social Value and the Social component of ESG, and whether the existing valuation principle of highest and best use can apply to Social Assets and Social Value.

The IVSC’s Social Value Working Group is seeking feedback on the following questions, to inform their future work in this area.

Survey questions:

1. Do you think that the definition for Highest and Best Use within a Social Value context needs to be expanded or reframed, and if so, how would you revise the existing definition?

2. Should governments and charities be maintaining a Social Value balance sheet in addition to their traditional balance sheets?

3. Do you consider that the current discussions on ESG adequately addresses Social Value concepts in both a for-profit and not-for-profit world? If not, what would give this discussion more prominence and stimulus?

4. With the information that is presently available, is it possible in most situations to accurately quantify and measure Social Value? If yes how, and if not, what is missing?
