Usługi w zakresie danych dotyczących zrównoważonego rozwoju i klimatu

Border to Coast wishes to procure sustainability and climate data services to support implementation of its Responsible Investment and Engagement Strategies, including portfolio risk management, investment decision-making, stewardship activities, external reporting and Partner Fund support. The required information and analytics will support the identification, assessment and management of sustainability-related risks and opportunities relevant to long-term investment performance. The scope of information required is expected to include sustainability metrics and assessments; controversy and conduct-related indicators; human rights and international norms data (including UN Global Compact-related information); information supporting the monitoring of exclusions; climate and net zero analytics; and data to support portfolio monitoring, stewardship activities, risk management and reporting requirements. The tender is currently expected to be structured across three Lots.Border to Coast recognises that no single provider may be able to meet all requirements and therefore reserves the right to appoint multiple providers, both across Lots and within individual Lots, where this delivers the most effective solution. Border to Coast may choose not to procure data in certain areas where relevant information is already available through existing provider relationships outside the scope of this contract. The solution should be provided under an enterprise-wide license, enabling access across multiple teams, including Responsible Investment, Research, Investment and Portfolio Risk. The required coverage spans a broad range of asset classes, including listed equities, corporate credit, sovereign credit, private markets and real estate. The contract is expected to support reporting and disclosure requirements across Border to Coast and its Partner Funds, including climate-related, stewardship and wider sustainability-related reporting. Certain headline sustainability and climate metrics will also need to be made available to Partner Funds through reporting processes. Partner Funds must be permitted to use relevant outputs and data for their own reporting, disclosure, stewardship and regulatory requirements. Appropriate redistribution rights within the Border to Coast partnership will therefore be required. The provider's operating model must be capable of integrating with Border to Coast's Investment Research and Data Platform, including BlackRock Aladdin, to support efficient data management, investment analysis, risk oversight and reporting activities. Providers should demonstrate an ability to support changing sustainability-related reporting requirements, market standards and regulatory frameworks over the life of the contract.
