Inside LSEG’s Sustainability Dataset
The dataset covers more than 16,000 companies, 1M+ fixed income instruments, and includes 240+ standardised metrics based on 2,000+ underlying data points.
The enhanced model uses a sustainability-first materiality matrix combining a redesigned industry classification with a double materiality approach at a business-segment level.
It also provides transparent scores on a scale of 0, not aware, to 5, leading.
The scores measure companies’ management of material ESG risks and opportunities across 12 Themes, providing decision-useful sustainability insights for a wide range of financial workflows.
The new framework introduces threshold-based scoring, capped metrics and performance analytics, rewarding companies that implement strategic ESG initiatives and show verifiable sustainability progress.
For deeper insight, Sustainability Ratings and Data also includes an optional ‘Plus’ layer.
This incorporates controversies, sovereign ESG risk and positive environmental impact signals such as green revenues and sustainable financing.
