Speaker 1:

So, how do you see NASDAQ as uniquely positioned to help build sustainable markets?

Speaker 2:

I think we, uh, NASDAQ has a very unique position. I mean, we have in the role we have, as in stock exchange operator, uh, we, we have a really good position to, uh, to work as a catalyst between the issues and, and IE, the corporate and the investors, and to, to link these two players, uh, together, uh, and thereby ensure that we go in the right path on the, within this inability area. So for instance, we, our main goal here is to actually support the, the corporates. We have all the listed corporates we have as, as, uh, dear clients and ensure that they, uh, embark on this ESG journey. We definitely think that all the corporates need to do this in order to have access to capital over time. And that is our primary role to ensure that we support corporates to get that, that access. Um, and in the same time, uh, as a stock exchange operator, what we also want to do is to provide transparency to the market. And that is what we try to help the, the, uh, issues to provide the information, to be fully transparent within this, this area, in order to connect the investors and have them to be able to be, to do very, uh, fully informed investment decision. I E have the information within the ESG, within the sustainability area, so they can make a responsible, uh, uh, investment decision based on accurate and, and fully disclosed, uh, information. So.
