Applying the Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment (PACTA) climate scenario analysis tool to a pilot group of Malaysian banks, we find that the gas and coal power generation portfolio is aligned with the Sustainable Development Scenario in South East Asia. However, 8 out of the 10 climate critical technologies assessed are not aligned with the Paris Agreement goals. 

We make a series of recommendations for the implementation, improvement and actionability of PACTA for banks and supervisors in the Southeast Asia region, with supporting illustration on just transition.

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.
