Upcoming ESG Regulation and Data Integration

Upcoming ESG regulations such as SFDR and EU Taxonomy are pushing buy side firms to acquire new ESG-related datasets in order to comply. A lack of standardisation in the ESG data market, both in terms of the underlying calculations and the symbology/corporate hierarchies used by vendors, presents challenges when integrating and linking the data to existing ESG data and internal data sets. Join us for a webinar that will offer insight on the upcoming ESG regulations in the UK and Europe and on integrating ESG data into your investment processes from a technical and data management perspective. The event will feature experts from both Bloomberg and M&G Investments, a global leader in sustainable value creation with a long track-record of responsible investing.
