Investors need environmental tools and methodologies which are: • Holistic: because environmental impacts are not just a matter of carbon • Transparent: for the sake of credibility and scientific opposability • Granular: because alignment metrics and exclusion factors only highlight the very green or the very brown, omitting all shades of transition • Applicable on all asset classes: in order to make aggregation at (diversified) investor’s level possible • Collaborative: “alone, one goes faster; together, people go further”, bringing users to work together is the best way to make them build tools which will meet everyone’s needs This is what the NEC (Net Environmental Contribution) has to offer.
