Vienna Stock Exchange website: Sustainability widgets for prime market companies

(Vienna) The Vienna Stock Exchange is further expanding its digital information services by providing sustainability data on all companies listed in the prime market. The widgets provided by Austrian start-up money:care offer transparent and clearly structured access to ESG-relevant key figures. With this expansion, the Vienna Stock Exchange is strengthening its role as the central digital hub for capital market information in Austria. With daily updates on prices, indices, company data, relevant analyses and news as well as comprehensive market statistics, it achieves high visibility and usage in the domestic financial ecosystem.

"Sustainability criteria can be of significant importance for investment decisions. The impact score determined by money:care offers valuable assistance by illustrating ESG parameters in a user-friendly way. As a stock exchange, we are thus deepening our range of information for existing and future investors," says Silvia Stenitzer, Project Lead CSRD, Wiener Börse AG.

money:care combines the Sustainable Development Performance Indicators (SDPIs) of the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD) with AI-supported data collection and expert analysis. It is based on a curated selection of 12 key climate, society and gender indicators, which are bundled in a Sustainability Performance Scorecard. The assessment is conducted in accordance with publicly available company data and relates to clearly defined sustainability thresholds, such as the CO2 budget in line with the 1.5-degree target.
