By Edlyn Cardoza
Aon plc and The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation recently announced a multi-faceted data and digital collaboration that will leverage both organisations’ power and unique capabilities to create new solutions to address evolving client needs. Together, Aon and BNY Mellon will focus on supporting clients’ global Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) needs, leveraging both firms’ collective ESG data and analytics capabilities and unique data sets. In addition, Aon and BNY Mellon will explore opportunities to enhance further solutions in digital assets and data and analytics as client needs continue to evolve.
Corporations, institutional asset managers and investors alike are increasingly focused on issues related to ESG and the impact they have on corporate performance and sustainable investing objectives. Through this new collaboration, Aon and BNY Mellon will work together to help clients make better, more-informed investment strategy decisions by providing enhanced data sets, advanced analytics, and actionable insights into ESG portfolio-level exposures.
“As we help clients manage and mitigate all forms of risk, including those associated with ESG efforts, we understand the most crucial economic and investment risks and opportunities facing institutional investors. We are excited to collaborate with BNY Mellon to further enhance how we are helping our clients make better decisions that impact their business and society,” said Greg Case, chief executive officer of Aon.
“We are very pleased to be working together with Aon on this initiative. This demonstrates BNY Mellon’s commitment to putting the Future FirstSM by using our global reach, influence and resources to help inform and support institutional ESG goals,” said Todd Gibbons, chief executive officer of BNY Mellon. “As one of the world’s largest asset servicers— with scale and significance at the heart of the financial system and touchpoints across the entire financial value chain— we have an exceptional view of ESG trends. This provides us with a unique vantage point to establish an ecosystem focused on ESG that offers clients innovative solutions based on market best practices.”
This collaboration will streamline Aon’s portfolio management and research process by enhancing net-zero reporting transparency. BNY Mellon and Aon are exploring opportunities to make Aon’s proprietary ESG fund ratings available to asset owners, allowing them to understand better how asset managers are incorporating ESG into their investments, operations, and organisational processes to help make better-informed decisions.
