The ESG Accord is a collaborative initiative established to address the inconsistent, incomparable, and overwhelming nature of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) data requests within the financial industry. It aims to improve transparency and efficiency by creating a standardized reporting framework that asset managers can use to provide clear and comparable ESG information to financial advisers, platforms, and end-investors. Supported by major UK financial industry bodies, the initiative provides a freely available set of questions and a reporting template to streamline the flow of crucial ESG data, making it easier to understand and assess investments.
