21 August 2024– London and Sydney – ESG Book, a global leader in sustainability data and technology, today announced a strategic partnership with Vyzrd, a leading Climate Risk and ESG intelligence platform.

Financial institutions, corporates and consultants are increasingly looking to establish the crucial link between sustainability data and the financial performance of a company to support value accretive strategic and investment decision-making. This addresses the growing demand to quantify the financial impact of climate change and net-zero transition policies to enable effective investment planning, climate risk management, and transition risk mitigation strategies.

Such demand is driven by a combination of investor pressure, mandatory climate and sustainability disclosures, and increased understanding that climate risk is a financial risk that needs to be proactively managed. This was underscored in April 2024 when the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision added climate risk to the Basel Core Principles, the standard for establishing a sound foundation for the regulation, supervision, governance and risk management for the global banking sector.

The new partnership combines ESG Book's industry-leading sustainability data with Vyzrd’s unique portfolio of software and data solutions designed to support advanced climate risk analytics, effective Net Zero transition planning, regulatory disclosure, and improved ESG integration.
