Nordea partners with Carbon Disclosure Project
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Nordea becomes Nordic partner to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), a
not-for-profit organisation with the world's first global reporting system on
climate change.
- Climate change demands global agreements and long-term solutions, and CDP is a
useful tool for companies and investors supporting this end, says Liisa Jauri,
Head of Nordea's CSR Secretariat.
CDP provides critical climate change data from thousands of the world's largest
corporations to inform the global market place on investment risk and commercial
opportunity and acts on behalf of 534 institutional investors with a combined
USD 64 trillion in assets under management.
- We will use the CDP's data to help drive investments towards a low carbon
economy by inspiring our investee companies to measure and report their
emissions and not least to improve our own products from a climate awareness
perspective, says Sasja Beslik, Head of Environmental, Social and Governance
Analysis (ESG) at Nordea.
CDP is a global organisation founded in the United Kingdom in 2000. It has
global sponsors such as Accenture, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Microsoft,
SAP, PricewaterhouseCoopers and Chicago Climate Exchange. There are three CDP
partners in the Nordic countries.
