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.

Source-edition basis: Global GHG Accounting and Reporting Standard — Part C, Second Edition, December 2025.

  • Score from one to five and direction of quality
  • Applicable Part C hierarchy and option
  • Premium-weighting basis
  • Insurance segment and scope group
  • Data sources, estimation status and period

Record-specific limitations

  • This score is distinct from the financed-emissions data-quality score and cannot reuse its Part A exposure-weighting boundary.
  • Scope 3 data quality must be reported separately from the combined Scope 1 and Scope 2 score.

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.
