ISS ESG, the sustainable investment arm of ISS STOXX, has augmented its suite of regulatory solutions to support investors in meeting evolving ESG disclosure requirements across the UK and EU. The suite has been updated to support the European Securities and Markets Authority’s Fund Names guidance and the UK’s Sustainability Disclosure Requirements (SDR). Both solutions aim to provide investors with the flexibility to create custom screens tailored to specific investment objectives and strategies, while accessing the underlying data to conduct a more granular analysis of funds’ sustainability characteristics. “With the new ESMA fund name guidelines and UK SDR regulation coming into effect in November and December, respectively, the timely launch of ISS ESG’s dedicated new solutions helps investors meet their imminent compliance deadlines,” said Till Jung, Head of ESG Business at ISS STOXX. ISS ESG has also added enhancements to its existing EU Taxonomy solution to support investors’ upcoming disclosure obligations, which will come into force early next year.
