Sizing the ESG data challenge for asset owners
We assess the daunting data challenge lurking in the latest Target Setting Protocol of the Net Zero Asset Owners Alliance.
The world is woefully behind on climate change mitigation and adaptation measures, but one of the more ambitious initiatives is the UN-convened Net Zero Asset Owners Alliance (“Alliance”). Members of the Alliance, which include 84 major institutional investors with over USD 11 trillion assets under management, commit to achieving net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across their entire portfolios by 2050. They also commit to meeting intermediate targets every five years to demonstrate progress towards that end goal.
