PCAF Launches Updated GHG Accounting Standard

Today, the Partnership for Carbon Accounting Financials (PCAF) launched an update to its Global Greenhouse Gas Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry (“Standard”) for Financed Emissions (Part A) and Insurance-Associated Emissions (Part C). In addition, PCAF introduced a supplemental guidance on Financed Avoided Emissions and Forward-Looking Metrics (“supplemental guidance”). These enhanced frameworks empower financial institutions worldwide to expand their ability to transparently measure and disclose the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with their financial activities. The updated Standard and guidance reflect PCAF’s ongoing commitment to harmonize GHG accounting across the financial sector.
