Climate Change Toolkit
Post on: 16 Март, 2015 No Comment
Climate change will create clear winners and losers across the investment universe.
EIRIS has developed a climate change toolkit for investors three products to help you reduce investment risks by avoiding those companies that are failing to tackle climate change, or engaging with companies to improve their performance.
Our products show you which companies are leading in their response to climate change and can help you identify those climate change solution companies which are best placed to benefit from operating in a carbon constrained world.
EIRIS research covers around 3,000 companies globally and combines an analysis of each company’s overall climate change impact (based on both direct and indirect green house gas emissions data and product emissions) balanced by an assessment of the quality of its response to tackling climate change and reducing its impacts.
EIRIS Carbon Profile
Provides a detailed assessment of how well your portfolio or investment universe compares to your chosen benchmarks on climate change. This assessment enables asset managers to measure the extent to which climate change risks are being adequately managed by companies within their portfolio.
Asset owners can use carbon profile assessments to monitor their managers’ performance on climate change and also to demonstrate to beneficiaries and stakeholders that climate change risks are being managed in a systematic way.
EIRIS Carbon Risk Factor
EIRIS carbon risk factor combines an analysis of companies’ impact and management response to climate change to give an overall quantitative assessment of climate change risk.
This provides an overall risk assessment which fund managers can easily integrate into investment analysis to identify climate change risk and capitalise on investment opportunities.
EIRIS Carbon Engager
EIRIS carbon engager identifies high risk climate change issues and companies for engagement and provides details of the steps that companies need to take to mitigate these risks.
This information can form the basis of an informed and focused engagement activity for asset managers (on behalf of asset owners). It enables investors to prioritise which sectors and companies to engage with on which climate change issues to help them achieve maximum impact from their engagement with companies.
