CDP Reporting
CDP, formerly known as the Carbon Disclosure Project, is a non-profit organisation that runs the global disclosure system for investors, companies, cities, states and regions to manage and disclose their environmental impact. The world’s economy looks to CDP as the gold standard of environmental reporting with the richest and most comprehensive dataset on corporate and city action.
CDP works with companies to catalyse urgent action towards a sustainable net-zero, deforestation-free and water-secure world. Companies can disclose their environmental information through CDP’s full corporate and SME corporate questionnaires which are designed to evaluate governance, strategies, targets & performance, risk & opportunity management, quantitative metrics, and supply chain engagement. The final publicly disclosed scores for all companies that participate are listed on CDP’s website.
- The platform is for companies to identify environmental risks and opportunities, reduce operating costs, and enhance their reputation - all of which can deliver tangible financial benefits.
- Align with relevant ESG disclosure frameworks including Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (S&P CSA), amongst others.
- Attract investment, 680+ financial institutions with over $130 trillion in assets use CDP data to inform their investment decisions. Disclosing through CDP can make companies more attractive to sustainability-focused investors.
- Join over 23,000 companies representing two-thirds of global market capitalisation who disclosed through CDP in 2023
