Nasdaq's ESG reporting requirements

By 2027, Nasdaq also aims for 70% of its suppliers by spend—encompassing purchased goods, services, and capital goods—to set science-based targets. Suppliers are encouraged to collaborate with Nasdaq in reducing climate impacts and to provide accurate, timely information to support Nasdaq’s environmental reporting and transparency commitments.
