Description

NEST will be undertaking strategic engagement with companies and regulators as part of its thematic work on ESG issues such as climate change, workforce, audit and banking culture. In addition, there may be times that we may need to undertake ad hoc engagements at short notice to address company specific risks that arise. To ensure NEST is fully prepared for both types of engagement work we need access to data that is both policy based, that captures information about companies' approaches, beliefs and policies, as well as news-based data that captures performance and reputational risks to companies as they arise.
