In search of a global ESG risk and reporting framework

Environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing is gaining momentum across major economies, with a growing range of ESG products.

As awareness of climate change rises, investors are aligning portfolios to support sustainability, with more than 80% of investors planning to increase ESG allocations in the next two years. Moreover, as ESG investment demand rises, financial institutions – including development banks – face the dual challenge of identifying associated risks while simultaneously seizing opportunities to drive sustainability through project financing and facilitating private funding for climate-related initiatives.

Banks require clear, standardised rating and reporting criteria to support sustainable projects and manage financial risks, while having access to a unified framework and real-time data to assess exposure to physical and transition risks. Next-generation technology aims to transform and streamline data collection and reporting to enhance ESG risk management for the next decade.
