Inconsistent ESG Score using get data API

andreas.hoepner

I retrieved the ESG Score using the get_data API for Apple and Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank for 2016. Below the code used:

data = ek.get_data(ISIN, "TR.TRESGScoreGrade(Period=FY-2)")

where ISIN is either the one of Apple or ADCB.

Comparing what I got with the terminal data and also the excel one, I noticed that for Apple the data is consistent while for ADCB the retrieved data s referred to 2015.

Is this an error of the API? Or there are some differences among companies?

Thank you.

It looks like there is no ESG data for ADCB.AD available for FY 2018,,, as a result, for this company the data is pulling 2017 as FY0,,, 2016 as FY-1, and 2015 as FY-2 ... So, the data is correct, it's just not lining up with Apple since Apple does in fact have 2018 figures.
