Gazprom Export continues to demand that rsted pays for gas supplies in roubles.

Key Points: 
  • Gazprom Export continues to demand that rsted pays for gas supplies in roubles.
  • Therefore, there is a risk that Gazprom Export will stop supplying gas to rsted.
  • However, this means that the gas for Denmark must, to a larger extent, be purchased on the European gas market.
  • In rsted, we have been preparing for this scenario to minimise the risk of rsted's gas customers, which are primarily major companies in Denmark and Sweden, experiencing shortfalls in gas supplies.

DES MOINES, Iowa, April 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Corporate Citizenship Project, a think-tank focused on a data-driven approach to corporate governance issues, released a letter to Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS") asking the proxy advisor why Russian state-owned energy company Gazprom enjoys a respectable "C Minus" rating on ESG despite recent news reports stating Gazprom has cut off US-allies Poland and Bulgaria from receiving gas supplies.

Key Points: 
  • Ghada Salahuddin, President & CEO of The Corporate Citizenship Project, had the following statement on the letter:
    "Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom serves as a vehicle of oppression against the people of Eastern Europe cutting off gas supplies for refusal to accede to Putin's demands.
  • I am shocked that ISS seems to think they deserve a respectable ESG rating.
  • This, compounded with ISS's apparent refusal to downgrade Russia's ESG rating even after President Biden accused Russia of committing war crimes in Ukraine raises troubling questions.
  • We need to know if ISS has accepted any payments from Russian state-owned companies and, if so, if they are continuing to do so."

DES MOINES, Iowa, April 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Corporate Citizenship Project (www.CorporateCitizenshipProject.com), a think-tank focused on a data-driven approach to corporate governance issues, today penned an open letter to Institutional Shareholder Services ("ISS") CEO Gary Retelny regarding the apparent decision on the part of ISS to not downgrade Russia's Environmental, Social, Governance ("ESG") rating below a "C Minus", leaving Russia's ESG score unchanged since the Russian invasion of Ukraine. 

Key Points: 
  • The letter reads as follows:
    On behalf of The Corporate Citizenship Project, I am asking you to clarify the decision on the part of ISS to not lower the ESG rating for Russia after its invasion of Ukraine.
  • Meanwhile, the reckless Russian decision to shell a nuclear power plant risked causing another Chernobyl-like environmental catastrophe.
  • We are therefore troubled by ISS's apparent decision to leave Russia's ESG rating unchanged.
  • Have ISS parent companies Genstar Capital or Deutsche Boerse influenced, or attempted to influence, ISS ESG ratings of Russia or Russian companies?

  • The main financial exposure relates to the price at which rsted purchases the gas from Gazprom Export, where rsted - under normally functioning market conditions - seeks to lock-in the margin by hedging (i.e.
