MetricAsset-management financed emissions

Asset-management financed emissions by scope (2025 edition)

Measurement answer

What this metric measures

Absolute gross financed greenhouse-gas emissions attributed to assets under management, reported separately for Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 with the AUM boundary, derivative treatment and data-quality context retained.

Reporting boundary

Financed emissions attributed to assets under management inside the declared AUM perimeter, separated into Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. No asset-class disaggregation is required. The boundary records any derivative exclusion and other excluded financial activities.

Unit meaning: Each table field uses its stated unit. Emissions fields use tonnes of carbon-dioxide equivalent; scope, AUM-perimeter, derivative-treatment, estimation and quality fields retain their stated categorical units.

Table fields and units

  • Greenhouse-gas scope
  • Financed-emissions amount (tCO2e)
  • Assets-under-management perimeter
  • Derivative-exclusion election
  • Data-quality or estimation context

Disclosure form

No single formula

Report measured or estimated financed emissions attributed to assets under management separately for Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3. The amendment does not require an asset-class axis or reduce the profile to one universal arithmetic result.

Verified sources

Evidence and status sources

Sustopedia checked each record-specific claim directly against primary publisher material. Labels distinguish current measurement authority from future compatibility and corroborative, legal, edition, or method status context. Corroborative evidence can support a stated limitation but cannot establish the core measurement by itself.

Interpretation boundaries

Method disclosures required

Source-edition basis: Sustopedia financial-sector financed-emissions profile, version 1.1, reviewed 2026-09-01 against the December 2025 primary amendment.

  • Assets-under-management perimeter included.
  • Scope coverage and any exclusions.
  • Attribution and estimation method.
  • Reporting date and data-quality treatment.
  • Whether the entity elected to exclude greenhouse-gas emissions attributable to derivatives.
  • What the entity treated as a derivative when applying the exclusion.
  • Financial activities excluded from the financed-emissions boundary, including activities associated with derivatives.

Record-specific limitations

  • Values are not comparable when AUM boundaries, derivative treatments, attribution methods, scopes or estimation policies differ.
  • Avoided emissions, offsets and removals must not be silently netted against gross financed emissions.

Interpret this metric with the stated reporting boundary, period convention, value shape, and unit. Results prepared with different boundaries or conventions may not be directly comparable.

Measurement evidence supports the core record-specific claims described above. Corroborative evidence can support limitations, while compatibility and status sources provide their separately labelled context. None of these cards by itself determines an organisation's legal applicability, filing readiness, assurance status, or compliance conclusion.
