    Laying Foundations for Scalable Markets in Trusted & Granular Green Data Reporting

    Back to Insights

     

    January 2025

    The need for trusted, verifiable, and granular green data and ESG indicators is driven by forces beyond regulation: data is essential for business intelligence, optimisation and new business models that enable firms to differentiate themselves and their offering to partners, providers, investors, regulators, and customers. This 2024 Point Zero Forum Roundtable brought together stakeholders1 to share progress, provide insights, and focus on the challenges to forging a more open and interoperable market for green data, while creating mechanisms that

    (i) enable us to establish and track provenance of,
    (ii) trust the integrity of, and
    (iii) control access to

    data across different organisations, geographies and value chains. Stakeholders specified the root causes of poor data quality hindering reporting efforts and shaped a preliminary proposal for trusted, scalable market arrangements to mobilise granular, machine-issued data for ESG indicators and financial market innovations.
