SIGWATCH

These datasets quantify tracking in real time of campaigning by NGOs, activists and advocacy groups from across the world, particularly their criticism and praise of named corporate entities and sectors on ESG-related issues. Data relating to corporate entities is indexed by ISIN, ticker and other corporate identifiers. Data relating to industry sectors is indexed by proprietary codes which map to NAICS classifications.
