Le webinaire de Carbon4 Finance organisé en partenariat avec CDC Biodiversité a été l’occasion de revenir sur l’article 29 de la Loi Energie et Climat et de faire un point sur le premier exercice de préparation des rapports extra-financiers des acteurs financiers dans ce nouveau cadre.Paris, 21 juin 2022. Carbon4 Finance, société française spécialiste de la fourniture de données mondiales sur le climat et la biodiversité, accompagne les investisseurs pour la publication de leurs indicateurs entrant dans le champ de l'article 29 de la loi énergie-climat, avec l’élaboration d’un rapport sur mesure qui répond aux exigences réglementaires françaises et internationales.En juin 2022, les sociétés de gestion de portefeuilles d’actifs publient leur premier rapport établi conformément aux exigences de l'article 29 de la loi énergie-climat entré en application en France en mai 2021. Cet article constitue un cadre plus ambitieux que celui de la réglementation SFDR en matière d’exigences de reporting. En effet, il demande aux acteurs financiers de publier, d’une part, les risques associés non seulement au changement climatique mais également à l’érosion de la biodiversité et, d’autre part, la politique de prise en compte de ces risques dans leur stratégie d’investissement. Inédites, ces exigences de publication soulignent la prise de conscience des enjeux environnementaux par le régulateur français.En s’appuyant sur son expertise environnementale, Carbon4 Finance accompagne les sociétés de gestion dans l’évaluation et la compréhension des risques climatiques et de biodiversité ainsi que de l’impact sur l’environnement de leurs portefeuilles d’actifs. Carbon4 Finance fournit aux sociétés de gestion de portefeuille assujetties à l’article 29 les données nécessaires et l’accompagnement dans l’élaboration et de l’écriture de leur rapport couvrant, pour les actifs qu’ils détiennent : - Les risques associés au changement climatique (risques de transition et physique) ; - Les risques liés à la perte de biodiversité et à l’impact sur les écosystèmes (risques de transition et physique).Avec ses trois bases de données, Carbon4 Finance propose en effet une offre complète pour répondre à l’article 29. Carbon Impact Analytics analyse les risques de transition climatique des entreprises, alors que Climate Risk Impact Screening évalue les risques physiques liés au changement climatique. Enfin, en partenariat avec CDC Biodiversité, la base de données Biodiversity Impact Analytics alimentée par le GBS (Global Biodiversity Score®) mesure l’empreinte biodiversité des portefeuilles.En chiffres, ce sont près de 350 milliards d’euro d’actifs sous gestion qui ont été analysés par Carbon4 Finance dans le cadre du reporting article 29, dont les actifs de MAIF et Rothschild &amp; Co Asset Management Europe pour n’en citer que quelques-uns. Cet exercice d’analyse des risques liés au changement climatique et à la perte de biodiversité est une première étape dans la prise de conscience des investisseurs. Les outils de mesure de l’empreinte carbone et biodiversité de Carbon4 Finance constituent la fondation pour construire une stratégie d’alignement avec les Accords de Paris et les Accords internationaux. Pour cela, les équipes de Carbon4 Finance et CDC Biodiversité accompagnent les investisseurs tout au long de l’exercice dans la compréhension des résultats obtenus. Ces analyses mettent en évidence les efforts sur lesquels se concentrer.Le webinaire du 13 juin 2022, qui portait sur l’utilisation des données climat et biodiversité dans le reporting des investisseurs, est revenu sur le premier exercice de publication de rapports établis en conformité avec l’article 29.Carbon4 Finance a travaillé étroitement avec la Direction générale du Trésor afin de fournir aux investisseurs les clés de réponse à l’article 29. Arthur Campredon, adjoint au Trésor, soulignait pendant le webinaire que « l’Article 29 de la loi énergie-climat va plus loin que la réglementation SFDR, avec un focus tout particulier sur le climat et la biodiversité ». La France souhaite « dépasser les ambitions du reporting RSE, en redirigeant les flux financiers de façon compatible avec l’objectif de limitation du réchauffement planétaire à 1,5 degrés Celsius ». En ce qui concerne la biodiversité, Arthur Campredon ajoute : « pour la biodiversité, nous devons réfléchir à un plan », en insistant sur la possibilité pour les investisseurs d’anticiper et de s’emparer du sujet sans attendre que le cadre ne soit plus mature. « Nous pouvons créer un momentum pour avoir un impact puissant sur le sujet de la biodiversité. »Le webinaire accueillait également une société de gestion afin de proposer un retour d’expérience sur le premier exercice de reporting établi dans le cadre de l’article 29. Andrea Sekularac, chargée d’affaires investissement durable chez Rothschild &amp; Co Asset Management Europe, revient sur l’exercice : « Carbon4 Finance nous a donné plus de perspectives sur nos challenges et la manière de les intégrer dans notre reporting, basé sur chaque secteur et chaque méthodologie. »&nbsp; La base de données Carbon Impact Analytics, qui évalue l’empreinte carbone et le risque de transition des portefeuilles, a été particulièrement clé pour la société, avec notamment des aperçus sur les émissions indirectes Scope 3 des émetteurs. Pour la biodiversité, les indicateurs fournis ont permis à Rothschild &amp; Co Asset Management Europe de comprendre l’impact associé aux investissements sur les écosystèmes. « La clé de succès de notre partenariat tenait dans le temps et l’honnêteté de nos discussions. Car en tant que fournisseur de données, Carbon4 Finance offre une perspective différente sur ces enjeux. » Le premier exercice article 29 devra être publié pour fin juin 2022.

Within this framework agreement, all central banks of the ESCB like the European Central Bank (ECB) and each of the 19 National Central Banks of the euro area forming the Eurosystem, are now given the opportunity to use Carbon4 Finance comprehensive data.A key step in bringing to life the common stance adopted by the Eurosystem on climate-changeThe assignment of Carbon4 Finance follows the announcement in 2021 of a common approach by the Eurosystem Central Banks to apply sustainable and responsible investment principles in the euro-denominated non-monetary policy portfolios<a href="#_ftn1">[1]</a> that they each manage under their own responsibility. Within this common stance, the Eurosystem aims to start climate-related disclosures beginning of 2023 including the measurement and disclosure of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and other SRI metrics of these portfolios&nbsp;consistent with the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), and potentially other portfolios in the future. By improving the awareness and understanding of climate-related risks, the common endeavor will help all Eurosystem members to contribute to the transition to a low-carbon economy and to EU climate goals.Carbon4 Finance data enables to assess exposure of central banks assetsCarbone4 Finance provides data covering both physical risks caused by global warming and transition risks supported by assets as the world shifts to a low-carbon economy. It comprises data and/or methodologies on Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 GHG emissions, GHG intensity data, avoided emissions and forward-looking elements. These data allow to follow main economic sectors and issuer-types with data relating to securities/asset classes such as sovereign and sub-sovereign bonds, supranational and agency bonds, corporate bonds, covered bonds, green bonds and equity. Carbon4 Finance has a worldwide coverage with more than 124,000 ISINs and 8,000 entities.A framework contract signed with Deutsche BundesbankDeutsche Bundesbank, which acted as Lead Central Bank during the procurement process entered into a contract with Carbon4 Finance and will be one of the first central banks that will obtain the data from Carbon4 Finance. All other ESCB central banks have the opportunity to join this framework agreement for using climate-related data from Carbon4 Finance for regulatory tasks and activities being necessary for the performance of its missions and responsibilities.“The availability of comprehensive, consistent and timely data is the key to everything we do,” says Sabine Mauderer,&nbsp;the member of the Bundesbank’s Executive Board responsible for markets. “The better the data situation, the more targeted our actions can be.”“From the very beginning, Carbon4 Finance's strategy has been to produce data that allow corporates, asset managers, banks&nbsp; to understand how the underlying assets in their portfolios are exposed to the risks of climate change, but also how they can contribute to the transition to a low carbon world.&nbsp; We follow rigorous scientific criteria and approaches, stemming from the Carbone 4 group's extensive experience in strategic consultancy and proven expertise in delivering leading-edge methodologies. At a time when the IPCC warns of irreversible impacts of global warming and increasing business and societal disruption, with an urgent call to action to the business community, we are delighted to see that the Eurosystem embraces this point of view.”&nbsp;said the&nbsp; partners of Carbone 4.“Climate change is a challenge not just to the global economy and the societies but also to the financial system. To support the finance sector in rapidly and massively addressing climate issues, our mission is to provide financial institutions with relevant data to help them better integrate related risks in their portfolio strategy as well as in their reporting. We are happy to have been selected by the Deutsche Bundesbank as Lead Central Bank in this procurement procedure on behalf of the whole ESCB/Eurosystem. Our strong methodologies and data quality on transition and physical risks as well as our team expertise on the different sectors and on the different assets and green bonds were instrumental for this recognition.”&nbsp;&nbsp;added the partners..The three partners of Carbone 4 are Alain Grandjean, Jean-Marc Jancovici and Laurent Morel.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="#_ftnref1">[1]</a>&nbsp;Euro-denominated non-monetary policy portfolios contain the assets held by Eurosystem central banks that are not related to monetary policy operations.
