ESG Book appoints Justin Fitzpatrick as CEO

Sustainability data and technology company ESG Book today announced the appointment of business software and fintech veteran Justin Fitzpatrick as its new CEO.

ESG Book, formerly Arabesque S-Ray, is a digital platform for ESG data management, disclosure and analytics. The company was founded in 2018 and incubated as a subsidiary of Arabesque Group, a group of financial technology companies providing sustainable investment, advisory and data services. The company provides sustainability and climate data to financial institutions, corporates and advisors with a SaaS-based platform that provides access to 200,000 company disclosures and analytics, and also offers the ability to request ESG disclosures directly from private companies.

According to ESG Book, the new appointment comes as demand for ESG and climate data continues to grow due to increasing sustainability regulation and disclosure requirements worldwide.

Nazo Moosa, member of the Advisory Board of ESG Book, said:

“I am delighted to welcome Justin as ESG Book’s new CEO. He is the ideal candidate to lead the company into a new, successful chapter at a time of disruptive innovation cycle in sustainable finance. With his deep expertise in scaling and accelerating the growth of investor-backed software companies, Justin has the track record needed to drive ESG Book’s global expansion and ensure its future success as a leader in sustainability data and technology.”

Fitzpatrick joins ESG Book after founding and serving as Chief Operating Officer of Customer Lifecycle Intelligence (CLI) platform FullCircl. He was also co-founder and CEO of regulatory and compliance-focused enterprise intelligence platform DueDil, which merged with financial services-focused data analytics software company Artesian Solutions in 2021 to form FullCircl. Prior to DueDil, Fitzpatrick was co-founder and non-executive director of UK fintech industry association Innovate Finance.

Fitzpatrick said:

“I look forward to working with the ESG Book team as we continue to expand our partnerships with financial institutions, reduce the burden on companies to meet ESG disclosure requirements, and provide market-leading analytics and tools to help our clients achieve their sustainability goals.”
