Guiding Financial Institutions on the Path to Net Zero
Share:
ESGTree is a cloud-based Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) data management and reporting platform for financial institutions. Our Carbon Calculator and automated climate reporting software are just some of the many features of our fully integrated platform. Our customizable technology, paired with industry-leading advisory services, provide our clients with the necessary tools to become leaders in the transition to net zero.
The Challenge For Financial Institutions
As ESG legislation tightens globally, financial firms are pushed to go beyond simply reviewing the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions they generate. This means measuring, disclosing, and minimizing the emissions generated by portfolio companies, suppliers, properties and investments. Financial institutions will now have to contend with large spreads of data in an ever-evolving regulatory landscape.
ESGTrees’s 360° Carbon Footprint and Climate Disclosure Solution
ESGTree is purpose-built to solve these pressing challenges. Our globally recognised technology platform has enabled some of the largest businesses in the world to measure, manage, report, and minimize their environmental footprint across their value chain. Turn theory into practice with our proprietary Carbon Calculator and numerous automated ESG reporting frameworks, including:
- Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
- Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF)
- Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB)
- Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR)
- ESG Data Convergence Initiative (EDCI)
ESGTree Features
Multi-Level Data Governance
Our platform allows for data governance at three levels, so whether you’re a Fund of Funds, a Fund, or a Portfolio Company, you will have access to the dashboards and analytics that are relevant to you.
Map Carbon Emissions Across the Entire Value Chain
Our Carbon Calculator enables users to map out Scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions for their firms and portfolio companies. Small and Medium sized-Enterprises (SMEs) especially appreciate our seamless Carbon Calculator as it reduces calculation time by 70%, making it a frontrunner in the market for carbon calculation. This, along with our built-in step-by-step reporting guides, collaboration tools, intelligent notifications and comprehensive industry benchmarks, transforms an ESG reporting burden into a value-creation endeavour across the entire value chain
Industry Leading Frameworks and Standards
In addition to our Carbon Calculator, our platform automates climate disclosure frameworks such as TCFD (Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure) and PCAF (Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials).
- TCFD: allows organizations to understand and report on their climate-related risks and opportunities. Regulators worldwide are increasingly calling to mandate TCFD-aligned disclosures.
- PCAF: enables financial institutions to standardize the collection, assessment and reporting of GHG emissions associated with their loans and investments
ESGTree is the only platform globally to have automated narrative TCFD report generation into a seamless process based on answering 40 multiple-choice questions.
