Better access to data leads to better decisions. Bloomberg was founded on that idea, and we are constantly working to expand the universe of data our customers can tap into. Today, investors examine companies with greater sophistication than ever before, and one of the new variables they consider is sustainability. They ask, for instance: How sustainable are companies’ internal practices, such as talent recruitment and retention? And how sustainable are companies’ external supply chains, including the natural resources they depend upon? More and more customers seek access to this kind of information – wisely so – but it has not been easy to discover. Bloomberg is committed to changing that. We now collect sustainability information on more than 11,000 of the most actively traded securities – a ten-fold increase from when we started in 2009. More than 17,000 of our customers use this information in their work. Those numbers will continue to grow as sustainability criteria become an increasingly important variable shaping companies’ market value. One of the challenges to analyzing sustainability data is its lack of standardization across companies and industries. To address this challenge, I serve as the Chair of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board, which develops metrics to include in a company’s annual S.E.C. filings. This reporting will allow analysts to see sustainability data in the same place they see financial data. At Bloomberg, our commitment to these issues runs through everything we do. Our employees are actively engaged in this work, as part of the 57,000 hours of service that Bloomberg employees around the world performed in 2014. In addition, we have increased the amount of renewable energy powering our offices, built our offices to the highest green building standards, improved energy efficiency more than 40 percent, and become the only news publisher to produce 100 percent of our magazines from sustainable paper sources. These steps have saved us nearly $70 million since 2008, and helped give us an edge in our work to attract and retain the most talented and hardest-working people. This report provides an overview of our work in these areas and how it is helping us to serve our customers more effectively. We are excited about their potential and committed to being a global leader in this critically important area for many years to come. 2 Bloomberg Impact Report 2014 Back to Contents BLOOMBERG IMPACT REPORT 2014 about this report.

The findings, based on analysis of interviews with more than five dozen industry thought-leaders and underlined with quantitative research from Bloomberg New Energy Finance’s Intelligence database, are contained in the white paper “Crossing the Valley of Death: Solutions to the next generation clean energy project financing gap.” Clean Energy Group, with the support of The Annenberg Foundation, commissioned Bloomberg New Energy Finance to join in the study, which examines the shortage of capital for clean energy technologies that require extensive and expensive field-testing before being deployed. Clean Energy Group and Bloomberg New Energy Finance conducted over 60 open-ended interviews with technologists, entrepreneurs, project developers, venture capitalists, institutional investors, bankers and policymakers from 10 countries across the globe to provide solutions on how to address the “Valley of Death” phenomenon. Ken Locklin, Clean Energy Group’s director of finance and investment, said, “This study presents some exciting new approaches to overcome this Valley of Death financing challenge that we should explore further.

He worked six days a week as a bookkeeper, and made enough money to support our family, but not much more. I asked him: Why are you giving money to that group? He told me: Because discrimination against anyone is a threat to everyone. That act of philanthropy was a gift—not just to the NAACP, but to me. The lesson that we all have a responsibility to help others was reinforced during my years in the Boy Scouts, and again spirit of generosity was contagious, and it is a spirit I would eventually carry with me to the company I started, where we encouraged, and still encourage, our employees to donate their time or money to causes they care about.

  • NPF Serialised Extracts Part 2
    National Provident Fund Final Report [Part 85] Executive Summary Schedule 9 Tender Procedures and Nepotism Continued Findings In paragraph 13.6.1.2, the commission has found that: (a) The evidence before the commission clearly indicates that Mr Wanji’s conduct in his dealings with Laiks Printing, a company in which he was a shareholder, director and a cheque signatory, was improper. Mr Wanji stood to benefit from NPF, when he obtained quotes from Laiks Printing and recommended Laiks Printing to supply stationery and office supplies. This was not disclosed to the NPF by Mr Wanji; (b) It is likely that moneys were paid to Laiks Printing well in excess of the fair value of goods and services provided by them Warenam Office Supplies There were 12 purchases from this company to a value of K80,982.26. Mr Alopea, the proprietor and manager of Warenam Office Supplies, voluntarily provided details of 16 secret payments to Mr Wanji totalling K12,530 during the period May 3, 1999 to June 14, 2000. However, in actual fact, Mr Wanji received only K11,280. Due to a loss of records at Warenam Office Supplies, other payments to Mr Wanji prior to May 3, 1999 could not be ascertained. Mr Wanji has admitted, in his evidence to this commission that these payments were made to him, personally, by Warenam Office Supplies, before May 3, 1999. Findings At paragraph 13.6.1.5, the commission has found that: (a) There was an agreement between Mr Wanji and Joe Alopea of Warenam Office Supplies that contracts would be awarded to Warenam in exchange for secret commissions paid by Warenam to Mr Wanji; (b) On some occasions the secret commission was factored into the price paid by NPF; (c) The relationship between Mr Alopea and Mr Wanji was criminal in nature.
