ESG Data for Retail Investors Market Outlook

According to our latest research, the global ESG Data for Retail Investors market size reached USD 2.4 billion in 2024, driven by a rising demand for transparency and responsible investing among individual investors. The market is experiencing robust growth, with a recorded CAGR of 18.7% from 2025 to 2033. By the end of 2033, the market is forecasted to reach USD 12.5 billion, reflecting the accelerating adoption of ESG data solutions across various investment platforms. This surge is primarily attributed to increasing regulatory requirements, evolving investor preferences, and the proliferation of digital investment tools that make ESG data more accessible and actionable for the retail segment.

One of the primary growth factors propelling the ESG Data for Retail Investors market is the heightened awareness and prioritization of sustainable and ethical investing among individual investors. Over the past few years, retail investors have shown a strong inclination towards aligning their portfolios with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles. This shift is supported by extensive media coverage on climate change, corporate scandals, and social justice movements, which have collectively influenced retail investors to seek greater transparency and accountability in their investment choices. As a result, the demand for reliable ESG data has soared, empowering retail investors to evaluate companies not only on financial performance but also on their broader societal impact. This growing consciousness has translated into increased adoption of ESG-integrated investment products and platforms, further fueling market expansion.

Another significant driver is the regulatory environment, which has evolved rapidly in recent years to encourage sustainable finance. Governments and regulatory bodies across major economies have introduced frameworks and disclosure requirements mandating companies to report on their ESG practices. Such regulations have cascaded through the investment value chain, compelling financial service providers to incorporate ESG data into their offerings for retail clients. The European UnionÂ’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), for instance, has set a precedent for global ESG reporting, influencing markets worldwide. These regulatory shifts not only enhance the quality and comparability of ESG data but also create a level playing field for retail investors, enabling them to make more informed and responsible investment decisions. The resulting standardization and improved data quality are pivotal in driving the adoption of ESG data solutions among retail investors.

Technological advancements and the digital transformation of the investment landscape have also played a crucial role in the growth of the ESG Data for Retail Investors market. The proliferation of online brokerage platforms, robo-advisors, and wealth management apps has democratized access to sophisticated ESG analytics previously reserved for institutional investors. Cloud-based ESG data platforms now offer retail investors real-time access to comprehensive ESG ratings, scores, and insights, integrated seamlessly into their investment workflows. Artificial intelligence and machine learning further enhance the granularity and predictive power of ESG analytics, helping retail investors identify emerging risks and opportunities. This technological enablement not only lowers entry barriers for individual investors but also fosters greater engagement and education around sustainable investing, amplifying the marketÂ’s growth trajectory.

Regionally, North America and Europe continue to dominate the ESG Data for Retail Investors market, collectively accounting for over 65% of the global market share in 2024. North America, led by the United States, benefits from a mature investment ecosystem, high digital adoption, and progressive regulatory initiatives. Europe, on the other hand, is characterized by stringent ESG regulations and a strong cultural emphasis on sustainability. Meanwhile, the Asia Pacific region is emerging as a high-growth market, driven by increasing wealth accumulation, rapid digitization, and rising ESG awareness among a burgeoning middle class. Latin America and the Middle East & Africa, though currently representing smaller market shares, are witnessing steady growth as ESG investing gains traction among retail investors in these regions.

The sustainable finance market, valued at $8.5 billion in 2025, is experiencing robust growth, projected to expand at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 21.15% from 2025 to 2033.

Our impact valuation data allows investors to measure, value and benchmark impacts of business activities across Natural, Human and Financial Capital KPIs.

Presented in the form of economic values, GIST's approach gives investors a common yardstick by which to understand materiality fully and accurately, so that they can manage risks, identify hidden alpha, and make informed decisions to stay ahead of the curve.

Investors can use our ESG data to screen potential investments, manage and track ESG performance across their portfolios, and clearly communicate materiality across all ESG dimensions.

Why use GIST's impact valuation data?

1. Measure all impacts of a company on shareholders and society - not just carbon / environmental impacts GIST calculates a company's impact across all four capitals - Natural, Human, Social and Financial, covering 18 main KPIs and 350+ sub-KPIs. Analysts are looking for as much data as possible on hidden alpha - and GIST provides coverage across all material impacts of a company's activities that might present a future risk - or an opportunity.

2. Compare easily across different metrics GIST uses scientific and economic modelling to provide accurate calculations of the impacts of a company in economic terms - providing a $ value of the impact on stakeholders and society. Analysts find themselves trying to make sense of fundamentally different metrics - parts per million of air pollution, tonnes of GHG emissions, gallons of water consumed, m2 land use change. GIST allows apples-to-apples comparison by converting all these different impacts into $ values (which are geography-specific), so you can understand the relative size of a company's air pollution impacts against its water consumption impacts, for example.

3. Benchmark performance across a portfolio, and within and across sectors Most sustainability scores, ratings and rankings evaluate companies within their sectors. This creates artificial distinctions and makes it difficult for analysts to measure how a company is performing in absolute terms (compared to relative grading). GIST calculates absolute impact, measured in $ values, to provide a simple, straightforward analysis that can be applied within sectors, and across sectors, to compare all the companies in a portfolio against each other accurately and make informed decisions.

4. Identify and manage material risks More traditional views of ‘risk’ have typically focused on the direct risk to a company’s P&L, and its ‘produced’ or ‘financial’ capital. These are risks that come from environmental dependencies (e.g. logistics companies threatened by storms/cyclones, agricultural companies threatened by crop failure, etc.) GIST takes a broader view and also measure risks that come from impacts of a company - not just what affects a company’s P&L directly, but what affects assets of society (natural, social, human capital) and is therefore an externality at risk of eventually being internalized - through regulation or otherwise. Assets in the oil and gas industry that have been a stranded as a result of regulatory and legal action are a good example of this risk becoming reality.

5. Understand how impact changes based on location GIST uses a granular, location-specific approach which means that with location data for activities (e.g., air pollution, waste), we can calculate the impact on shareholders and society based on local context - environmental, ecological, health, socioeconomic and demographic, so we can make more accurate estimates for example for a city in Ghana vs. a city in Sweden. As disclosure is expected to increase dramatically in the next 2 years, GIST's methodology is equipped with a level of resolution that can provide insights that are constantly increasing in precision.

The proliferation of ESG investing is further catalyzed by mounting evidence linking strong ESG performance to long-term financial returns and reduced downside risk. This paradigm shift is compelling asset owners, pension funds, and wealth managers to adopt advanced analytics solutions that can provide actionable insights into ESG performance, thereby fueling the demand for specialized software platforms.

Another critical growth factor for the ESG Portfolio Analytics Software market is the dynamic regulatory landscape. Governments and regulatory bodies across North America, Europe, and Asia Pacific are implementing stringent ESG disclosure requirements and sustainability reporting standards. For example, the European Union’s Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and the U.S. SEC’s proposed climate-related disclosures are compelling financial institutions to enhance their ESG data collection, analysis, and reporting capabilities. This regulatory push is driving financial institutions to invest in robust ESG analytics platforms that can automate compliance, monitor ESG risks, and ensure transparency in reporting, thus accelerating market expansion.

Technological advancements in artificial intelligence, big data, and cloud computing are also playing a pivotal role in the expansion of the ESG Portfolio Analytics Software market. Modern ESG analytics platforms leverage machine learning algorithms and natural language processing to extract actionable insights from vast and unstructured data sources, including sustainability reports, news articles, and social media feeds. The integration of advanced analytics enables real-time monitoring and dynamic scoring of ESG factors, empowering portfolio managers to make informed investment decisions. Additionally, the scalability and flexibility offered by cloud-based solutions are facilitating broader adoption among both large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), thereby broadening the market’s addressable base.

From a regional perspective, North America and Europe collectively account for the lion’s share of the ESG Portfolio Analytics Software market, supported by mature capital markets, progressive regulatory frameworks, and a strong culture of responsible investing. However, the Asia Pacific region is witnessing the fastest growth rate, driven by increasing ESG adoption among institutional investors, evolving regulatory standards, and a burgeoning fintech ecosystem. The region’s rising middle class and growing environmental consciousness are further contributing to the market’s expansion, positioning Asia Pacific as a key growth engine for the forecast period.
