I moved around frequently when I was younger, so I\u2019ve been drawn and exposed to change, diversity, and trying new things. I believe that was one of the things that attracted me to Bloomberg.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I joined Bloomberg in Hong Kong in 2006 after I graduated from university in Korea. I was wowed by the view from the Hong Kong office, but more impressed by the intelligence, motivation and collegiality demonstrated by everyone I met regardless of rank or role within the firm. The culture also stood out to me. I immediately knew I wanted to work for the company, and now it\u2019s been 17 years!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I spent the first nine years of my career in Sales and Specialist roles in Hong Kong. I was passionate about emerging markets as well as managing APAC-wide accounts and influencing product development for the region. Then in 2016, I moved to London for three years and had an amazing role in the Financial Products Knowledge Group (now known as Financial Solutions Knowledge Group).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After three years in that group I moved to New York in 2018 and after spending time back in Sales with a broader remit as Sales Manager and COO, I joined the newly formed ESG Product team (the Sustainable Finance Solutions group) when Bloomberg was beginning to make big investments in this area. I still work on this growing team, but have since moved back to London. I feel very fortunate because the role requires me to collaborate with so many groups across Engineering, Data, UX, News &amp; Research, Sales, Analytics, Marketing, Communications and also with many other Product teams.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-row bbg-bg--white  bbg-row--margin-top-none bbg-row--margin-bottom-none' data-anchor='row-6a038cd43e278'>\n  \n\t\n\t\n\t<div class=\"bbg-row--content\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-2'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"font-size: 64px; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;\">Q:<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-8 bbg-column--valign-middle'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"margin-top: 16px!important; font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px!important;\"><b>What are some of your top priorities?<\/b><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-row bbg-bg--white  bbg-row--margin-top-none bbg-row--margin-bottom-compact' data-anchor='row-6a038cd440cdf'>\n  \n\t\n\t\n\t<div class=\"bbg-row--content\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-2'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"font-size: 64px; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;\">A:<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-8 bbg-column--valign-middle'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In recent years, we\u2019ve invested significantly in our Sustainable Finance Solutions, notably to expand the ESG content we provide to our customers, and lay the foundational infrastructure for ESG solutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, we will expand on our differentiated content and focus on delivering seamless workflows that empower customers to make thoughtful investment decisions with ease, through quality analytics and integration. <\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-row bbg-bg--white  bbg-row--margin-top-none bbg-row--margin-bottom-none' data-anchor='row-6a038cd443498'>\n  \n\t\n\t\n\t<div class=\"bbg-row--content\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-2'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"font-size: 64px; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;\">Q:<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-8 bbg-column--valign-middle'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"margin-top: 16px!important; font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px!important;\"><b>Can you speak to some of the trends that are shaping the momentum around sustainable finance and ESG?<\/b><\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-row bbg-bg--white  bbg-row--margin-top-none bbg-row--margin-bottom-compact' data-anchor='row-6a038cd445607'>\n  \n\t\n\t\n\t<div class=\"bbg-row--content\">\n\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-2'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <div style=\"font-size: 64px; font-weight: bold; text-align: right;\">A:<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n<div class='bbg-column bbg-column--width-8 bbg-column--valign-middle'>\n\t<div class='bb-wysiwyg'>\n    \n    <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the past, ESG was seen as something niche.

The investments that we\u2019re making in our infrastructure are\u00a0 to guarantee quality and provide transparency. We are continuing to expand our content offering every year, and when it comes to problems like lack of disclosure, we have models to help fill in the gaps, where we can estimate on a very large scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many reports that show ESG will only increase in significance.
