This methodology prioritises carbon impact and risk analysis to guide investment or financing decisions, both through absolute value assessment, merit order and cross-sector allocation. It serves as a foundation for active engagement, driving strategic dialogue and best practices with your clients and financed companies.

OUR APPROACH

A bottom-up methodology

As companies use different methodologies for their annual reporting, we extract raw physical and activity data to verify and, where necessary, supplement or correct the carbon metrics. This ensures accuracy and comparability between the entities or elements being assessed.

A dynamic assessment

We evaluate a company’s transition risks through a dynamic analysis of its climate performance:

Past: tracks historical climate trends in greenhouse gas absolute emissions and intensities.
Current: measures present performance against specific activity reference scenarios or benchmarks.
Future: evaluates forward-looking performance across 5 criteria (strategic vision, capital expenditures, scope 1 & 2 targets, scope 3 targets, and climate governance).

Our coverage & asset classes

Designed to support financial institutions, Carbon Impact Analytics measures the climate contributions and risks of all your assets. The methodology evaluates the carbon performance of each entity or instrument individually before aggregating the results at the portfolio level.

Asset class coverage

Full coverage of listed equities, corporate debt, climate bonds and sovereign bonds. Private equity and non-listed entities can be seamlessly integrated on demand.

Market breadth

51,000+ entities and 4,600,000+ instruments : one of the most comprehensive coverages on the market.

Comprehensive sectoral coverage

One of the only databases on the market to systematically cover all major sectors, broken down into 80 sectors and over 1,200 activities.

Induced emissions (scopes 1, 2 & 3)

Bypasses corporate self-reporting flaws and bridges the massive scope 3 blind spot through independent verification.
