Brief description of the data offering

Our solutions are the basis for security selection and the follow-up of your portfolio’s sustainability performance. We work with renowned partners to offer comprehensive and global ESG data for a universe of some 10,000 equity and bond issuers that can be linked to high-quality in-house research. We design individual solutions that are focused on your needs.

Our modulable offer comprises different services – all accessible without you having to license an ESG platform: 

  • Raw Data: Provision of lists with granular datapoints including quantitative and qualitative information on all common ESG aspects. 
  • Analysis: Line-by-line screening of our global universe according to the individual client strategy. The user-friendly deliveries contain complete and processed analysis results that can be updated on a regular basis (e. g. quarterly). 
  • Monitoring: Implementation of a monitoring process to be automatically notified of any violations that may occur between data deliveries. 
  • Profiles: Summary of the analysis results for an issuer as an additional source of information. This allows to understand why a specific business incident constitutes an exclusion against the defined client strategy.
  • Reporting: Transparency on sustainability metrics consolidated at portfolio level with a benchmark comparison on-demand. The reporting scope can be chosen as required by the client (e.g. ESG or climate reporting). 
  • Support: Besides the provision of data, we offer corresponding consulting services – may it be in choosing a fitting set of ESG criteria or to fulfill regulatory requirements (e. g. EET).

Where and how do you source your data?

We offer individual data solutions based on internal and external data sources. We work with renowned partners, such as Moody's and right°, to offer comprehensive ESG data for a global universe of issuers. Additionally, our inhouse team offers on-demand research services. 

We and our data providers ensure that all companies are analysed and rated impartially, using reliable and public sources, e.g. ESG and press databases, annual and CSR reports, controversy reports from NGOs and courts as well as company surveys. Quality control processes are emphasized throughout various stages. Reliable data requires methodological competence, experience and reliable sources.

What is the cost for your data offering?

Our pricing depends on various factors, e. g. number of research lines, assets under management or frequency of delivery. Please do not hesitate to get in touch for more information.
