The long-anticipated ESG ratings exclusively for companies in Taiwan, TESG, has officially debuted! TESG is an indicator of corporate ESG and is developed especially for “responsible lending” and “responsible investment.” With more than 20 years of research experience in corporate social responsibility (CSR) and quantitative analysis, TEJ will launch the ESG ratings of Taiwan-listed and OTC companies, TESG Rating, by the end of the first quarter this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TEJ has been dedicated to corporate governance and ESG-related research since 2002. In 2005, a corporate governance database was launched according to OECD and Taiwan’s Code of Corporate Governance Best-Practice Principles. As time goes by, corporate social responsibility has gotten more and more popular around the globe. In response to the popularity, TEJ organized the information of eight aspects of corporate social responsibility with ISO26000 and KLD in 2015. The CSR database provided in 2020 focuses on the ESG framework and provides useful evaluation indicators. In the same year, with regard to the announcement of Green Finance 2.0, the competent authority implemented responsible investment and lending in the financial industry and established more rules to follow. TEJ started the research and development of ESG ratings exclusive to Taiwanese companies accordingly. After a year and a half of hard work, the TESG Rating will finally be launched in the first quarter of this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TESG covers all companies listed in Taiwan. The measurement variables include CSR reports, the annual report of the shareholders’ meeting, and other public information which includes the Labor Standards Act, ISO, GMP product certificate, and negative news related to social responsibility to offset the problem that most companies do not disclose CSR reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article is the first to introduce the main focuses of research and development for TESG:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
