RELATED IDEAS

Need solution for financial services companies scope 3 emissions associated with the reporting company’s investments in the reporting year, not already included in scope 1 or scope 2.

assessing and setting targets for financed emissions involves multiple complexities arising from differences between sectors, geographic variation, shifting counterparty plans, changing industry standards, and a nascent and rapidly evolving data environment. The actions that banks take to achieve targets often create pressure on other objectives, such as revenue growth in critical business areas, and require changes to key processes and policies—a situation that calls for careful reconciliation. Banks must balance their goal of reducing financed emissions with the simultaneous goal of financing reduced emissions—which often involves increasing financing to responsibly heavy emitters who need capital to decarbonize their businesses.

    Thanks for your idea Brian. I understand the point you're making, but could you provide more detail on what solution you're looking for?

    We do have tools currently for Scope 3. We can create account styles that have pre-categorization, so when emissions related to financed emissions are catpured, they can be reported correctly under category 15.

    We also have custom tags that can be applied if the organization wants to categorize a subset of accounts for reporting.
