Banque de France, ERAFP, Generali Group tap Iceberg Data Lab for ESG data solutions
Iceberg Data Lab, which provides ESG data solutions for financial institutions, has signed three new clients including Banque De France, France’s central bank, global asset management and insurance firm Generali Group, and ERAFP, a French public service additional pension scheme.
The three new clients will be able to access Iceberg Data Lab’s scientific-led dataset available through its impact calculation platform, which offers a number of solutions to help firms in their decision-making process.
Firms can use the datasets to assess the environmental impact of their portfolios, inform sustainable investment and risk management strategies, build indexes and funds, develop environmental impact reporting, and more.
Banque de France will utilise IDL’s Corporate Biodiversity Footprint metric to mitigate its biodiversity impact; ERAFP plans to examine the exposure of its listed asset portfolios to climate change and biodiversity issues; while Generali Group will leverage IDL’s products to guide their investments keeping the ecological system in mind.
Matthieu Maurin, co-founder and CEO of Iceberg Data Lab, says signing up the new clients “demonstrates the versatility of our offering and the increasing focus on sustainability in the finance sector”.
“Through our quality, transparent and accurate data solutions, we’re dedicated to supporting our clients on their sustainable transition journeys, as well as helping them to avoid greenwashing.”
IDL was launched in 2015 to measure and monitor environmental metrics via its platform and provide a life cycle analysis of portfolio companies for financial institutions. It covers all countries, sectors and scopes including Scope 3 emissions.
