What is new?

Nasdaq will as of December 17, 2018, launch ESG Data Portal to support sustainable investments across its Nordic markets. The Nasdaq ESG Data Portal is a centralized distribution point that offers investors access to standardized ESG data from Nordic listed companies, while listed companies are offered a platform to showcase their ESG data.  

The ESG Data Portal is built upon the Nasdaq ESG Reporting Guide, and serves as a bridge between issuers and investors focused on ESG issues. The portal adds to Nasdaq Nordic’s existing suite of ESG initiatives, including the ESG responsible OMXS30 Index Future and the Sustainable Bonds Market.

The ESG Data Portal fulfills a need in the market for a centralized distribution point with standardized ESG metrics for investors committed to supporting sustainability. In addition to offering access to standardized ESG information direct from the issuers, the portal combines sustainability and performance metrics to make information actionable to investors that are accountable not only to sustainability metrics, but to financial returns.

The Nasdaq ESG data product is available on different platforms:

  • A new dedicated ESG API solution
