FTSE Russell, ISS ESG, MSCI and Sustainalytics have collaborated with TDCC to launch a new ESG Dashboard that provides consolidated access to ESG ratings.

TDCC (Taiwan Depository & Clearing Corporation) has launched a new ESG Dashboard to help issuers and investors access ESG ratings of Taiwanese companies.

TDCC is Taiwan’s CSD (central securities depository), offering custody, securities settlement, issuer services, and shareholder voting solutions.

The new ESG Dashboard will enable domestic issuers to effectively manage their ESG ratings and empower local institutions to engage on ESG issues, by providing a consolidated channel to access ratings from leading ESG rating providers, TDCC said.

FTSE Russell, ISS ESG, MSCI and Sustainalytics have collaborated with TDCC on the project.

“Issuers and investors can utilise ratings as benchmarks to comply with global standards and integrate ESG into their investment process,” said TDCC chief executive Sherman Lin.

The Dashboard will be delivered on the TDCC Investor Relations Platform, an ESG initiative aimed at encouraging sustainable investing and enhancing companies’ performance on ESG issues.
