Methodology

Transparent calculation from exposure to t CO₂e

02

Each result can be broken down into the financial position, attribution factor, emissions data, and data quality score.

Financed emissions = Attribution factor × Borrower or asset emissions

The specific attribution denominator and data hierarchy depend on the asset class. CarbonFin stores the formula, source version, and all assumptions together with the result.

01

Organization setup

Portfolio boundaries, reporting period, currency, and participant roles.

02

Exposure upload

Positions, borrowers, assets, and financial parameters.

03

Data linking

Company and asset emissions, production data, and sector-specific factors.

04

Attribution calculation

Financing share and emissions calculated according to the rules of the selected asset class.

05

DQS assessment

Data quality, sources, assumptions, and validation checks.

06

Disclosure

Aggregation, intensities, explanations, and verifiable exports.

Boundaries, periods
and recalculations

The methodology defines the organizational and portfolio boundaries, reporting date, currency, consolidation rules, and treatment of material changes.

01

Scope 1 and 2

Direct and energy-related emissions of the financed entity or asset form the required basis where applicable.

02

Scope 3

Included in accordance with methodology requirements and materiality, with transparent indication of coverage and data quality.

03

Evidence history

Versions of factors, files, checks, and approvals remain linked to each calculation period.
