Kuala Lumpur / Singapore – 21st July 2022
RAM Sustainability Sdn Bhd a wholly owned subsidiary of RAM Holdings Berhad and Turnkey Group, a leading global Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) analytics provider, have joined forces to collaborate in providing real time ESG data analytics for Malaysian companies.
The sustainability market is growing rapidly in Asia. The need to accurately measure, monitor and demonstrate ESG compliance has never been greater, as global pressures and scrutiny on companies’ ESG practices and disclosure intensify.
“Our collaboration with Turnkey will allow RAM to further strengthen the assessment and monitoring of companies’ ESG performance and risks, by providing access to quantifiable and real time ESG data. This collaboration will also benefit the growing number of Malaysian banks and fund management institutions that are already working with RAM Sustainability on the ESG front” highlights Promod Dass, CEO of RAM Sustainability.
Turnkey’s deep expertise and years of industry experience have seen it recognised as one of the leading software providers in sustainability, with a particular emphasis on ESG and risk management. “Combining RAM Sustainability’s ESG rating knowledge and suite of ESG solutions with Turnkey’s Sustainion technology will be an interesting journey that will benefit Malaysia and ASEAN markets’ requirements and the growing need for accurate ESG real-time data”, said Tony Wines, CEO of Turnkey Group.
