TPI’s latest assessment of the industrials/materials sector, comprising 169 companies in aluminium, cement, chemicals, diversified mining, paper, steel, and other industrials.

As we enter the ‘transition decade’, new research by the Transition Pathway Initiative finds that only 16 of 111 (14%) large publicly-listed industrial companies are aligned with an emissions reduction pathway that would keep global warming at 2°C or below. The combined market cap of the 95 industrial companies failing to align with 2°C or below by 2050 is over $856 billion.

This discussion paper proposes a methodology to assess the Carbon Performance of the diversified mining sector.

New research from the Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI) reveals that just two of the ten largest mining companies are aligned with limiting climate change to 2°C. These 10 companies have a market capitalisation of over $350bn and contribute to annual carbon emissions of over 1.5 billion tonnes either directly or indirectly via their products.

TPI is proposing to extend its analysis of management quality and carbon performance to corporate fixed income. This document outlines our proposals and invites your feedback by 14th May 2020.
