The launch of our Climate Tech Compass, a tool to help governments and organisations to align investments and policies with the goals of the Paris climate agreement, received coverage from Environmental Finance, Expert Investor, and Responsible Investor, among others.

The Climate Tech Compass allows governments, companies and financial institutions to view specific “transition pathways” for a number of high-emissions sectors for which technological change and greenhouse gas emissions are “most critical”.

The high-emissions sectors covered are automotive, aviation, shipping, power generation, agriculture, real estate and the manufacture of steel and cement.

2DII today announced it is transferring stewardship of the Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment (PACTA) to RMI, formerly Rocky Mountain Institute. PACTA measures financial portfolios' alignment with various climate scenarios, including those consistent with the Paris Agreement. Under RMI’s stewardship, PACTA will remain a free, independent, open-source methodology and tool, and will continue to provide the financial and supervisory community with forward-looking, science-based scenario analysis to help users make climate-aligned financing decisions. RMI will invest in scaling up PACTA’s usability and applicability in day-to-day investment decisions as well as reporting requirements.
