Bloomberg Provides ESG Data to Nearly 15,000 Investors on the Bloomberg Terminal
Originally posted on bloomberg.com/impact
Bloomberg collects, scrubs, verifies and continually updates environmental, social and governance (ESG) data from published company disclosures on the Terminal. Currently, we provide company-reported ESG data for almost 9,500 companies in 83 countries and executive compensation data for more than 5,600 companies in 69 countries — and we’re on track to provide ESG data on 13,000 companies by the end of 2018. Investors across asset classes can dig into data on energy and emissions, waste, gender diversity on boards, independent directors, workforce accidents and more to better understand the risks and opportunities associated with potential investments and counterparties. Our ESG data now also includes daily corporate governance data that displays changes in board membership when proxy documents are filed. The number of customers using our ESG data has almost tripled over the past five years, to 14,935 users.
