Sources and alerts enable active ownership

First and foremost, it is imperative to introduce one of the ESG Monitor’s simplest but maybe most used features, i.e. that of customized alerts.

Getting relevant Alerts is key to your decision processes, whether or not you are actively using ESG signals as part of your investment strategy or need to ensure compliance with ESG regulations. Any user can, from any dashboard, set personal alerts on given news flows and signals, down to a level of detail of a certain ESG factor on a particular company. ESG researchers, Fund Managers and Compliance Managers alike, all can make sure to never miss out on decision critical input for the portfolio and compliance management or for the proactive engagement with holdings on ESG issues.

A broad set of standard suggested alerts are available for all user types including:

• New Weekly ESG Report
• New Watch Logs
• New Regulations
• New Sanctions
• General Environmental News
• General Social News
• General Governance News

The ESG monitor comes with a number of selected sources that focus on ESG related news and information. 
In addition to this the customer then of course adds which data feed and and sources, both external and internal, that is relevant for their specific Investment methodology
