Danske Capital Selects Sustainalytics as Its ESG Research and Data Provider

Sustainalytics, a leading provider of environmental, social and governance (ESG) research and analysis, has been selected by Danske Capital, an international asset manager and part of the Danske Bank Group, to provide a comprehensive suite of ESG research and data solutions that will be integrated into the manager's investment products.


"Our firm understands and embraces the importance of carefully considering and monitoring ESG factors, so we wanted to work with a leading provider whose core business is built on a very strong responsible investing foundation," said Robert Mikkelstrup, Senior Vice President at Danske Capital. "By making Sustainalytics' ESG research and ratings available to our own portfolio managers and analysts, Danske Capital can facilitate a more holistic, thoughtful approach to investing."

Headquartered in Denmark with more than €100bn in assets under management worldwide, Danske Capital focuses in-house resources on the management of Nordic, European and Eastern European assets, where their market knowledge, resources and systems are in the best position to deliver excellent performance for clients, while working with external managers that offer expertise in other regional markets around the world.

Going beyond a standard subscription agreement, Danske Capital and Sustainalytics plan to work together this year to advance the dialogue around responsible investing best practices, helping investors better understand ESG integration.

"We are honored to have been selected by Danske Capital to help their portfolio teams integrate ESG factors into their solutions-based approach to investing," said Sustainalytics' Chief Executive Officer, Michael Jantzi. "We look forward to working with Danske to bring a higher level of understanding around ESG-related risk to the global investment community."
