At Neural Alpha, we have been thinking about Air and Water pollution at sea. This notoriously challenging topic to track has profound ESG implications. Our new product, Responsible Capital News Screen, examines news stories worldwide (and at sea!) to identify reported ESG Events, such as bilge dumping, oil spills or stranded vessels. News screen identifies mentioned physical assets as well as their owners, enabling ESG professionals within asset management, banking and corporates to incorporate news flow into universe construction, monitoring & engagement, due diligence / screening and risk management requirements at scale without compromising on precision and context.

Neural Alpha provided an analysis on the scale and channels of UK financial sector exposure (both direct and indirect) to deforestation risk in Indonesian palm and Brazilian soy and beef, as WWF sought to strength commitments in the UK Environment Bill.

In this webinar Neural Alpha CEO James Phare joined partners OpenCorporates to discuss the importance of open company data in due diligence and other requirements.
