Financed Emissions Management

Software with financed emissions management capabilities enables financial institutions to collect, calculate and analyse the greenhouse gas emissions associated with their financing, investment and underwriting activities across asset classes, in alignment with the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) methodology. Key features include emissions data aggregation and quality management, financed emissions calculation tools, portfolio-level emissions analytics, decarbonization target tracking, and scenario modelling.

Financed emissions management software helps financial institutions overcome the complex challenges of measuring, managing and reducing the greenhouse gas emissions associated with their lending, investment and underwriting portfolios. Because financed emissions are often the largest component of a financial institution's carbon footprint, firms face significant difficulties collecting emissions data across diverse asset classes, obtaining information from private companies, and producing accurate and consistent emissions estimates when primary data is unavailable. These solutions address operational challenges by automating emissions data collection, aggregation, estimation and quality management across portfolios, reducing reliance on spreadsheets and manual processes. They provide portfolio analytics, hotspot identification, target-setting and scenario modelling capabilities that help institutions assess decarbonization pathways, evaluate climate transition risks and incorporate emissions considerations into financing and investment decisions.
