About this session

What constitutes ESG data? Is it fundamental or alternative data?

How can we make sense of ESG scores when the correlation between different providers is so low? What gaps in data and standards are there and what is needed to address this?

How can ESG be used to drive outcomes and impact versus being used to drive risk management and alpha generation?

Let’s try and break apart ESG into its constituent parts to make better sense of what it is (and isn’t) to put it back together with a little greater clarity.
