Announcement Date of ESG-Score

Unfortunately, as a research assistant, I don't have access to the helpdesk, so I hope that someone here can answer my question:

I want to carry out an event study and need the date on which an ESG score was published in Refintiv Eikon. The papers I have found use TRESGScore.date as the publication date, but is the ESG score in Refinitiv Eikon actually always updated at the end of the fiscal year of the respective company? What about the other dates (Calc Date, Update Date, etc.)?

Even though this forum is more for programming type questions, I hope someone could answer my question.

Many thanks in advance!

Hi @nietz01

This questions is more related to content and would suggest you reach out to the helpdesk and they can bring in a content specialist for ESG that can confirm what is available for your study.

Unfortunately, as a research assistant I do not have access to the helpdesk. Perhaps someone who does have access can forward my question.

I've been having the same problem for months. In Refinitiv Workspace, I used “esgscoreupdatedate” and in Refinitiv Eikon, I used "ESGPeriodLastUpdateDate" as it does not have “esgscoreupdatedate”. None returned the ESG Score update date (or announcement date) corresponding to each year. In the case of “esgscoreupdatedate”, it appears that the date displayed has the correct day and month components but the wrong year component.
