FTSE Russell ESG Scores · SET-listed & mai

FTSE Russell scores your English edition — not your Thai filing.

From 2026, the Stock Exchange of Thailand assesses every listed company with FTSE Russell ESG Scores — read from your public, English-readable disclosure, with no questionnaire. Your Thai 56-1 One Report satisfies the SEC. Your English edition is what earns the score. Most issuers still don’t know the difference.

How the score actually works

A public exam, graded in English.

The language the assessment can read

Unlike the retired SET ESG Ratings, there is no form to complete. FTSE Russell’s analysts assess what you have already published — the One Report, the sustainability report, the corporate website, press releases. Whatever exists in English is the evidence; whatever only exists in Thai, or is thinly translated, largely isn’t counted. The FTSE4Good Thailand Index (launched 6 July 2026) is built on exactly this scoring.

The gap most issuers miss

Two documents. Two different jobs.

Thai 56-1 One Report

Satisfies the regulator

  • Meets the Thai SEC filing requirement
  • Written for compliance, in Thai
  • Not what FTSE Russell’s analysts read
  • Perfect Thai, invisible to the score
English edition

Earns the score

  • The artifact FTSE Russell actually assesses
  • Must carry every indicator’s evidence, in English
  • Where a mistranslated or missing term costs real points
  • Where foreign investors and index inclusion are decided

When those two drift apart — a Scope figure that doesn’t reconcile, a governance disclosure that’s fuller in Thai than in English, a materiality term rendered loosely — the score follows the English edition. That drift is the single most common, most fixable reason a good Thai company under-scores.

What we do about it

We build the edition that gets read.

Othello is the only Thai firm that couples ISO 17100 certified translation with in-house ESG methodology (IFRS S2 / GRI / TGO / ISO 14064). We produce the English edition of your disclosure as a score-earning asset — clause-mapped to your Thai filing, terminology-locked to the frameworks, and calibrated to what each FTSE indicator looks for. Not translation after the fact; disclosure engineering.

Straight answers

The questions issuers actually ask.

Does FTSE Russell send Thai companies a questionnaire?
No. Unlike the retired SET ESG Ratings, FTSE Russell ESG Scores are assessed entirely from a company’s public disclosure — the 56-1 One Report, sustainability report, corporate website and press releases. There is no questionnaire to fill in. What you publish is the assessment.
What language does FTSE Russell score?
FTSE Russell’s analysts assess publicly available, English-readable disclosure. Your Thai-language 56-1 One Report satisfies the Thai SEC, but it is the English edition of your disclosure that the assessment can actually read and score. A thin, delayed or loosely translated English edition leaves points on the table.
Is my Thai 56-1 One Report enough to earn a good FTSE score?
It is enough for SEC compliance, but not for the score. The Thai filing and the English edition are two different jobs: one satisfies the regulator, the other earns the rating. If your English disclosure omits, mistranslates or blurs what an indicator looks for, the score reflects the English edition — not your Thai original.
How is the FTSE Russell ESG Score structured?
It is a 0–5.0 score across 3 pillars (Environmental, Social, Governance), 14 themes and 300+ indicators, of which roughly 125 are applied to any given company based on its exposures. Companies receive a review window of the analyst assessment before scores are finalised.
We are a mid-cap / mai company, not SET50 — does this affect us?
Yes. From 2026 the FTSE Russell model is the domestic benchmark across the market, and the FTSE4Good Thailand Index (launched 6 July 2026) is derived from the FTSE SET All-Share. Smaller issuers are scored on the same public-English-disclosure basis — and often have the weakest English editions, which makes the English-disclosure gap the easiest place to gain ground.
