Brief description of the data offering
Asset Resolution provides asset-based indicators linked to companies and securities. Our forward-looking and geolocated data covers the most carbon-intensive sectors of the economy. Leading global financial institutions use our data to drive their climate transition.
Asset Resolution links financial portfolios with the real economy. Our data maps 300,000+ physical assets across 9 sectors to 60,000+ companies under a consistent framework ensuring comparability across companies.
We provide forward-looking indicators including capacity, production, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity, absolute GHG emissions, and geolocation at the asset, corporate, and security level. We cover the oil and gas, coal, power, automotive, aviation, shipping, steel, and cement sectors. Our asset-based indicators cover up to 10 years of data, both historical and forward-looking.
Where and how do you source your data?
We partner with leading business intelligence providers to source data on physical assets in the real economy, for example AutoForecast Solutions for the automotive sector, and Cirium for the aviation sector. Our team maps the physical assets with security issuers using ownership data from various third-party sources including FactSet. We calculate key indicators at asset, company and security level including greenhouse gas emissions metrics using our in-house bottom-up asset-based model. We triangulate data sources, work with data providers on data gaps, and complement this with our research. Finally, we also gather information and feedback directly from some of the companies we cover, and through partnerships with research institutions. This consistent framework enables comparability across assets, companies and sectors.

What is the cost for your data offering?
