BNP Paribas Securities Services’ ESG marketplace, Manaos, has onboarded two new partners – Util and V.E., part of Moody’s ESG Solutions – to supplement its sustainability data and analytics offering. Now live on Manaos, Util’s machine learning models quantify the degree to which every listed company positively and negatively impacts the 17 UN SDGs and their 169 targets. To objectively evaluate a company’s real-world impact, Util focuses on the effects of its products and services and draws conclusions from peer-reviewed journals. Manaos has also onboarded data from V.E, part of Moody’s ESG Solutions. V.E.’s data, scores and assessments help investors to better understand their exposure to ESG risks and opportunities, and facilitate reporting, innovation and active engagements with companies.
Manaos is an open servicing platform designed for institutional investors to manage their post-trade investment data, and aims to become the leading marketplace for sourcing ESG data and monitoring and reporting on sustainability. As part of its open ESG strategy, Manaos partners with leading sustainability fintechs to give users ready access to a wide range of ESG data and analytics tools. Earlier this year, Manaos announced a partnership with Clarity AI, a sustainability and data science company.
