HONG KONG, Feb. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Diginex Limited ("Diginex Limited" or the "Company"), an impact technology company specializing in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues, is excited to announce the launch of its ESG Ratings Support Service. The innovative service is designed to help businesses secure an ESG score across key rating agencies, including CDP, EcoVadis, Sustainable Fitch, S&P, Sustainalytics, the world's leading ESG ratings providers. Leveraging Diginex Limited's expertise and cutting-edge technology, the ESG Ratings Support Service provides companies with a robust framework to optimize their ESG ratings, attract investment, and strengthen stakeholder trust.
The launch of the ESG Ratings Support Service comes at a pivotal moment as investors, regulators, and consumers increasingly prioritize sustainability. With the global ESG investment market reaching nearly USD 29.86 trillion in 2024, according to a report by Precedence Research, and regulatory bodies like the European Union, SEC as well as many stock exchanges globally who are mandating comprehensive ESG / Climate disclosures, businesses need reliable tools to navigate this landscape. diginexADVISORY's new ESG Ratings Support Service offers a tailored approach, combining expert consultancy with data-driven insights to help organizations report their ESG data and performance to secure competitive advantages.
"We believe our ESG Ratings Support Service is a game-changer for companies looking to align sustainability with commercial success," said Mark Blick, Chief Executive Officer of Diginex Limited. "By providing clear, actionable recommendations into ESG performance, we're helping businesses to unlock new opportunities for growth and investment. Sustainability isn't just a compliance exercise—it's a prerequisite for long-term prosperity."
Case Study: Living Style Group's ESG Performance
A recent example of the service's impact is diginexADVISORY's collaboration with the Living Style Group, a global leader in home decor and furnishings generating over $1.2 billion in yearly revenue. Living Style Group successfully completed its first-ever CDP submission, achieving an impressive B score in Climate on its first attempt.
"With Diginex's expert guidance, we successfully navigated our first ESG disclosure, achieving strong CDP scores on our first attempt. Diginex's structured approach made a complex process seamless," said Mark Loomis, EVP Quality, Compliance & Sustainability, Living Style Group. "This report marks an important milestone in our journey toward greater sustainability, and we look forward to building on these efforts in the years to come."
Through this collaboration, we believe that Living Style Group is now better equipped to attract ESG-focused investors and meet evolving regulatory demands.
