How do companies like Apple versus Microsoft score on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)? And how do countries like the US and Finland score on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) criteria? Find out in this webinar in which our sustainability experts will tell you all about our SDG Framework and SI Open Access tool, which enables you to use these scores in your investment processes.

Our experts discuss:

  1. How sustainability data can work for academics and benefit you
  2. Why we believe in spreading access to sustainability data that is often scarce
  3. How the data can drive sustainable development through the SDG lens

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.
