Environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations have become an increasingly important part of investment and risk management decisions.
FTSE Russell’s ESG Ratings and data model measure corporate ESG risk and performance in multiple dimensions. These flexible and data-driven ratings help investors understand a company’s exposure to and management of ESG risks.
FTSE Russell’s Green Revenues data model measures company revenue percentages from green products. The model helps investors forecast opportunities related to the transition toward a green economy.
FTSE Russell’s ESG Philosophy
Underpinning FTSE Russell’s ESG products is a commitment to investing infrastructure. Our work is grounded in four actionable pillars:
- Supporting capital markets (investors, issuers and intermediaries) in the transition to a sustainable and green economy
- Facilitating dialogue on sustainability and improving data along the investment chain to help integrate sustainability into financial markets and capital allocation
- Enabling market participants to integrate sustainability into investment strategies and engagement/stewardship
- Championing transparency and fostering both wider access and improved quality of the ESG data available to market participants
