“Investors are increasingly viewing CO2 emissions as a material issue and expecting companies to report accordingly. Companies who don't disclose this information themselves risk having their emissions estimated by a third party, and this number may in turn be used by data providers to develop ESG ratings that investors around the world use to evaluate and engage with companies. So if companies want to be sure of the quality of the emissions data that finds its way to the market, they need to report themselves“
Melanie Brooks, Senior Responsible Investment Analyst, Folketrygdfondet
“During my years in the financial industry I have come to the conclusion that companies who report emissions to CDP are more aware of their overall sustainability risk and opportunities. Therefore I always encourage companies to report to CDP”.

Climate disclosure as a “first step” indicator of environmental risk management
“In our meetings with companies with a weak ESG profile one of our key recommendations is that they answer the CDP questionnaire because it leads companies through many of the key environmental issues they should be considering.”
Climate performance as an indicator of efficient operations
“In most mature markets stakeholder demands for carbon management are higher, and thus carbon reporting is more prevalent. For our Swedish Stars portfolio, we look not only at whether a company reports, but also, for example, how the company performs and data verification as indicators of efficient operations.” Katarina Hammar, ESG Analyst at Nordea Asset Management

„We will vote against the report and accounts at the AGM.” Aviva
“The CDP data helps us to determine the quality of an individual company’s management response and is a factor in our overall buy, sell and hold decisions. When necessary we make specific recommendations for change. At Aviva Investors we take this very seriously as the average length of time we hold a stock is for six years, which is longer than most companies long term strategy. At one extreme, if such a company had not even bothered to respond to the CDP, then we tell them that unless this changes, we may vote against the report and accounts at the company’s next AGM. This is proving quite a successful sanction.”
“Measurement allows management. It provides a framework to consider options, shows investor transparency and benchmarking; all in turn impacting energy efficiency, costs and reputation.”
