Programming their new artificial intelligence platform Alpha-Dig, developed by the bank’s Data Innovation Group (dbDIG), the bank analyzed stock impact and mapped company stock prices after filtering though a staggering five million pages of company announcements released by 1,600 MSCI World companies over the last 20 years, in addition to every Dow Jones news article written.
“As government regulation on the issue continues to increase, climate change mitigation will become a normal part of doing business,” said the report. “Customers have spoken, investors have spoken. Those companies that do not listen will certainly be left behind.”
