The Japan Exchange Group has launched the ‘ESG Knowledge Hub’, a platform where listed companies can access ESG information.

The hub provides information and guidance on ESG disclosure and investment from institutional investors, regulators, government and listed companies.

JPX says it plans to build the ESG Knowledge Hub into a platform for connecting investors and companies, and as such is inviting listed companies to sign up as ESG Knowledge Hub Members. The Hub has 28 Supporters so far, including the FSA (Financial Services Agency), the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, and the Ministry of the Environment, as well as institutional investors, ESG ratings agencies, accounting firms, among others.
