HONG KONG SAR: BlueOnion, an award-winning sustainability analytics platform has collaborated with Morningstar Sustainalytics, one of the world’s leading independent sustainability and corporate governance research, ratings and analytics firm to empower banks and asset managers to analyse and visualize sustainability data. This collaboration addresses the growing challenges of greenwashing in sustainable investment products.
With the surge in ESG assets and heightened regulatory scrutiny—such as the recent circular issued by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) on the Sale and Distribution of Sustainable Investment Products, the synergistic interplay between BlueOnion’s analytics and Morningstar Sustainalytics’ data will enhance the financial sector’s efforts in meeting compliance requirements in a transparent and fuss free manner.
Together, the BlueOnion SFDR product and Morningstar Sustainalytics’ data expand coverage to 300,000 mutual funds, ETFs, and 93,000 bond funds, offering broader insights for sustainable investing. The platform standardizes sustainability product measurement, aligns with the EU SFDR, and empowers organizations to analyze ESG performance, assess carbon emissions, avoid controversies, and address climate change—all while meeting regulatory and investor expectations with transparency and confidence.
“We are excited to collaborate with Morningstar to deliver a transformative, turnkey solution that empowers banks and asset managers on their sustainability journey. By combining Morningstar’s unparalleled global fund data and analytics expertise with BlueOnion’s innovative platform, we provide deeper insights into funds pursuing sustainability integration, transition, and impact through EU taxonomy-related activities.
