Baader Bank Selects Bloomberg’s Comprehensive ESG Data for SFDR Reporting

Bloomberg announced today that Baader Bank AG, a leading investment bank in Germany, has adopted Bloomberg’s ESG data to assist with the bank’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) reporting. This marks the latest collaboration with Baader Bank building on their use of Bloomberg Terminals, Data License, B-PIPE as well as Bloomberg’s integrated buy-side workflow, execution, automation and analytics solutions. Taken together, these solutions deliver Baader Bank interconnected data for seamless, connected workflows across their enterprise.

As a renowned outsourcing partner of asset management companies for their fund products, Baader Bank is subject to entity-level SFDR reporting requirements. For this type of reporting firms look for high quality and complete data, including the disclosure of Principal Adverse Impact (PAI) indicators, for which many corporations do not provide meaningful information. Bloomberg’s SFDR data solution covers over 16,000 companies globally and has been designed to assist firms like Baader Bank to map company reported ESG data to PAI indicators. Given this breadth of coverage and ease-of-use data fields, Baader Bank adopted Bloomberg’s SFDR data solution to assist with their entity-level reporting.

“Regulatory compliance is a top priority for Baader Bank. When selecting a vendor to contribute to our compliance with SFDR, data consistency and a sterling reputation were crucial factors in our decision to expand our relationship with Bloomberg,” said Jochen Ammer, CFA, Head of Fund Services at Baader Bank AG. “Bloomberg’s intuitive SFDR reporting visualization tool enables us to closely monitor portfolio holdings across accounts and see exposure to aggregated PAIs nearly instantaneously ensuring we can be confident in our reporting.”

“With 40+ years as a leading data provider for financial markets, Bloomberg has unique expertise providing trusted, comprehensive sustainability data specifically designed for investment workflows,” said Nadia Humphreys, Global Head of Sustainable Finance Data Solutions, Bloomberg. “We’re pleased to expand our work with Baader Bank and supply them with SFDR data so they can utilize it as an additional source in conducting due diligence on the sustainability of their assets.”

Bloomberg’s ESG data, research, and analytics span regulatory solutions, carbon emissions, sustainable debt, scores, indices, climate risk, and more.
