Today, Iceberg Data Lab joins more than 130 businesses and financial institutions, including long-term client BNP Paribas Asset Management, in signing an open letter that calls on governments to reform the public incentives that harm nature.

Iceberg Data Lab is proud to be among the first ESG data providers officially registered by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) under Regulation (EU) 2024/3005, the EU ESG Ratings Regulation.

Decarbonization is now essential for global business, with net zero commitments covering 92% of global GDP. Achieving these targets requires sophisticated data analytics to track emissions reductions accurately. Key technologies driving this transformation include renewable energy, carbon capture, and hydrogen applications. Iceberg Data Lab’s advanced ESG solutions support companies in tracking their decarbonization journey, ensuring alignment with science-based targets, and managing risks across industries from heavy manufacturing to transportation. Our platform provides the analytics and insights necessary for businesses to navigate the path to net zero while maintaining competitive advantage.

The EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), effective December 30, 2025, mandates that key commodities—including cattle, cocoa, coffee, palm oil, rubber, soy, and wood—entering EU markets are deforestation-free. Companies and financial institutions must implement rigorous due diligence, including geolocation data, risk assessments, and supply chain monitoring. Non-compliance can result in penalties up to 4% of EU turnover. Advanced ESG data platforms, integrating satellite monitoring, AI analytics, and blockchain traceability, enable organisations to manage EUDR risks, ensure compliance, and maintain market access while supporting sustainable investment decisions.

The EU’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) requires financial institutions to disclose Principal Adverse Impact (PAI) indicators, assessing the negative environmental, social, and governance (ESG) effects of investments. This regulatory framework ensures transparency, accountability, and informed decision-making, requiring comprehensive data on emissions, biodiversity, and social metrics. Advanced data platforms streamline PAI reporting and compliance, helping institutions integrate ESG factors into investment strategies and maintain regulatory alignment.
