Asset Managers | The smart way to respond to carbon requests

How do your financed emissions stack up?

As the focus on climate change intensifies, asset owners are increasingly committing to net-zero targets in their investment portfolios. Consequently, the demand for high-quality financed emissions data is growing rapidly.

This poses challenges for asset managers, who must now provide accurate emissions data for the investments they manage to meet their clients' expectations.

Fortunately, the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) has developed a standardised reporting framework that asset managers can use to calculate financed emissions data.

Pathzero integrates the PCAF methodologies into an easy-to-use platform and quickly generates PCAF-aligned emissions estimates. Asset managers can share this information, in platform, with their investors, streamlining the response to carbon information requests.

Pathzero enables asset managers to engage directly with portfolio companies to request reported carbon data. This engagement improves the integrity of the emissions data reported and allows asset managers to demonstrate how carbon risk is managed within a portfolio.
