BNY Mellon has expanded its environmental, social and governance (ESG) Analytics offering by integrating fixed income scoring for corporate bonds.
BNY Mellon clients can now view ESG and United Nations Global Compact scores on equities and fixed income at a portfolio level.
Clients also have the ability to view the ESG and global compact scores at the company-level.
An extension of BNY Mellon’s Global Risk Solutions Exposure and Structural analysis product, ESG Analytics is a service that helps clients manage and monitor ESG.
For ESG scoring, each company is evaluated on financially material information against similar companies in that sector.
The global compact score is an assessment of a company based on the framework defined by the United Nation’s Global Compact.
In addition, BNY Mellon Risk View now provides ESG reporting using Arabesque S-Ray data.
Risk View supports clients risk measurement analysis to help them make more informed investment decisions.
Integrating ESG reporting into Risk View allows investors the ability to view their ESG ratings on their entire portfolio including traditionally opaque investments like hedge funds.
Fraser Priestley, managing director of global risk solutions in Europe, the Middle East and Africa at BNY Mellon, commented: “As institutional investors continue to demonstrate increased interest in incorporating ESG analysis to their investment process, we remain committed to providing our clients with a range of ESG products and continue to value the importance of sustainability.”
