Our ESG data comes hosted on two platforms:LSEG Refinitiv Workspace and Mergent Market Atlas. The data are from the same source. Mergent has easy-to-access, overall reporting. It's great for tracking overall company and peer performance. LSEG Refinitiv gets more granular on specific factors that make up the ESG pillars. Not everyone will need that level of granularity.
**This resource will replace Mergent Online in June 2025. It provides access to company financials, ratios, business segments, descriptions, sustainability, officers and directors. It is especially useful for company, industry, index, ESG and economic data views and reports.
Workspace is only available to UC San Diego students, faculty, and staff; only for non-commercial, academic research. It replaces ThomsonONE/Investext and Datastream, and now works across several browsers.
Register only once; otherwise login to Workspace using the main link. You may use web or desktop app version (includes the Workspace add-in for Excel), once you are registered.
