Our Journey as Asia’s leading ESG Registry

Enabling ESG via Technology and Data

Climate change and sustainability are crucial global key objectives and considerations today to seize opportunities and manage risks. To be profitable, companies have to be sustainable. Our technology and data platform across Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG), as well as Sustainable Finance, enables financial institutions, corporates, and SMEs, to achieve their ESG goals regardless of their ESG maturity.

Our ESG FinTech solutions expand on our good work in the capital markets since 2019, delivering digitalisation and automation for the financial sector.

With ESGpedia powering the ESCAP Sustainable Business Network (ESBN) Asia-Pacific Green Deal digital platform and the ASEAN Single Accesspoint for ESG Data (SAFE) pilot initiative, and as a technology partner of the Monetary Authority of Singapore’s (MAS) Project Greenprint, we aim to digitally empower businesses in Asia towards sustainability development and help ensure compliance towards increasing ESG regulations.
