The SDG Framework scores the contributions that companies make to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), while our Country Sustainability Ranking (CSR) shows how countries and economies rank on ESG criteria. In this way you can tell the ‘true’ level of sustainability of a stock or bond.
In this webinar, Head of Sustainability, Carola van Lamoen, explains the rationale behind this initiative on why we share this valuable corporate data to the wider world. Our SDGs expert, Jan Anton van Zanten, provides insight into how academics use our data and how the SDG Framework can help with equity and bond investing. To balance the qualitative merits of the data, Deputy Head of Quant Equity, Wilma de Groot, shares how the data is used to optimize quantitative investment portfolios.
