The world’s two largest credit rating agencies, six major audit networks, three leading index providers, and two global stock exchanges are among eighteen leading organisations that have launched the Net Zero Financial Service Providers Alliance, uniting investment advisors, credit rating agencies, auditors, exchanges, index providers, ESG research and data providers, and proxy research providers.
The Net Zero Financial Service Providers alliance joins the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), the UN-backed group for financial institutions to make credible net zero commitments through the UN’s Race to Zero.
As members of the new alliance, these organisations are committing to aligning all relevant products and services to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 at the latest and to set meaningful interim targets for 2025 within 12-months of joining. These commitments are in addition to the organisations setting Science Based Targets to reduce their operational emissions in line with limiting global temperature rises to 1.5°C.
This is a major step in mobilising the flow of capital committed to supporting the transition to a net zero economy, by helping to ensure that asset managers, banks and financial institutions have the data, information and products needed to achieve their own net zero goals.
