Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) Service
At DKS Capital Advisory, Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is not merely a statutory requirement, it is a strategic instrument that protects people, strengthens projects, and enhances long-term value for investors, lenders, and communities.
Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is a comprehensive, forward-looking process that identifies, predicts, and evaluates the environmental, social, economic, and human-health impacts of proposed projects before critical decisions are taken. A well-designed ESIA enables projects to be responsibly planned, socially accepted, financially viable, and fully aligned with national and international safeguard expectations.
Our ESIA services are rigorously aligned with:
-
Bangladesh Environment Conservation Act, 1995 (ECA)
-
Environment Conservation Rules, 1997 (ECR)
-
Department of Environment (DoE) clearance requirements
-
Bangladesh Bank Sustainable Finance Policy & Environmental and Social Risk Management (ESRM) Guidelines
-
World Bank Environmental and Social Framework (ESF)
-
IFC Performance Standards on Environmental & Social Sustainability
-
ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS)
ESIA and ESG are where responsibility meets strategy, protecting communities, capital, and long-term returns.
Why ESIA Service Matter
