Summary

Bridgewater Associates performed poorly in the 2025 Financial System Benchmark and has significant potential to improve transparency and performance.

Despite its substantial scale and potential influence in driving progress in sustainable finance, the financial institution’s lack of transparency places it at a disadvantage compared to its peers. This makes it vulnerable to environmental and social risks, diminished stakeholder trust and regulatory misalignment.

Being behind many of its peers in terms of overall disclosure, it is recommended that the financial institution uses this benchmark as a guide to disclose more on its sustainability practices and performance with regards to its provision of products, capital and services, as well as considering its own operation and supply chain, across the five measurement areas including Strategy, governance and stewardship; Financing Climate and Nature protection and restoration; Environmental footprints; Inclusive finance and Responsible business conduct.
