Hi everyone! Hope all is well. I had a question regarding publicly available ESG data. I’m working with a start-up right now and they’re looking for publicly available ESG datasets (e.g. annual reports, disclosures, etc.). I provided them with the usual list of MSCI, Sustainalytics, Bloomberg Green, Refinitiv but wondering if there’s something else I’m missing?
They’re keen to work with large datasets and test some of their upcoming tech using this data – I’m helping them with their ESG use case (just elaborating for context). Thank you!

I bet Philipp von Bieberstein will be able to help too, especially given the ESG data work he does. Also, calling out to Joanne Thurlow and Veslemøy Klavenes-Berge on the ESG side, and Johannes Castner, Ryan McGee and Sabina Firtala on the data side. Hope this helps!

Hi Shalaka, it can be tough to find high-quality datasets that are free but I would say the top-of-the-line free information can be found on the World Bank website. In terms of paid datasets, my company works with EIU, the dataset from the economist, but it can be a bit pricey. We’ve also explored options such as Clarity.ai and NASDAQ. Hope that helps, and willing to chat if you have more questions!
