Net Zero Banking Assessment Framework and Carbon Performance for Banks data from TPI Global Climate Transition Centre

The banking data by the TPI Global Climate Transition Centre (TPI Centre) evaluate and compare the progress banks are making in aligning their financing activities with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

1. Net Zero Banking Assessment Framework (NZBAF), an investor-led framework developed in consultation with IIGCC and Ceres evaluating banks on 77 sub-indicators across ten areas, such as their decarbonisation strategy, climate governance, or exposure and emissions disclosure.

2. Carbon Performance for Banks (CP for Banks), an in-depth quantitative assessment of which sectors and business activities are covered by banks’ decarbonisation targets over different timeframes and their level of alignment with low carbon benchmarks (1.5°C, Below 2°C, International and National Pledges).

Established in June 2022, the TPI Centre is an academic research centre at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) dedicated to producing independent and forward-looking research and data on the progress of corporate and sovereign entities in the transition to a low-carbon economy. Its assessments use publicly disclosed information and its research outputs and datasets are publicly accessible. Through its collaboration with Transition Pathway Initiative, a global investor-led initiative, the TPI Centre ensures its research is not only robust but also decision-useful in real-world scenarios, with insights directly tailored to the needs of the financial sector.
