*Indicates Year 1—recognizing investor engagement is in its early stages.
The disclosure benchmark evaluates corporate disclosure in relation to key actions companies can take to align their businesses with the Climate Engagement Canada and Paris Agreement goals. The benchmark reflects publicly disclosed information as of June 1st, 2024.
In the case of electricity utility companies, the relevant year of long-term alignment is 2040. This is equivalent to IPCC Special Report on 1.5° Celsius pathway P1 or net zero emissions by 2050.
This is equivalent to IPCC Special Report on 1.5° Celsius pathway P1 or net zero emissions by 2050.

Examples of affected accounting line items may include:
- Property, plant and equipment
- Intangible assets
- Inventory and investments
- Environmental or decommissioning provisions
- Tax-related assets or liabilities
The assumptions that are disclosed should be sufficiently comprehensive to provide a meaningful picture of climate-exposed amounts in the financial statements, in the context of the company’s climate risks, emissions targets and strategy.
The focus is on transparency. Disclosing these inputs help investors assess potential exposure. The assessment does not evaluate whether the assumptions reflect climate risks—only whether they are disclosed in a way that investors can evaluate their relevance and sensitivity.
To be assessed as ’Yes’, the company must have been assessed as ’Yes’ for Metric 1.a. To be assessed as ‘Partial’ for this Metric, the company must have been assessed as ’Yes’ or ‘Partial’ for Metric 1.a.
The focus remains on the financial statements; other reporting is reviewed only to provide context.
The assessment looks for references to climate in Key or Critical Audit Matters (K/CAMs), either in a dedicated section or within discussions of topics like asset valuation or impairments.
If not included in K/CAMs, the auditor can still meet this metric by explaining how climate risks were considered in the audit approach.
The goal is to help investors understand whether and how the auditor addressed climate-related risks.
Auditing standards require auditors to review certain "other information"—such as the management report, strategy disclosures, or risk factors—to ensure it is consistent with the audited financial statements.
If inconsistencies are found, the auditor should note them in the audit report. If Metric 1.c is assessed as "Yes," this metric will often also result in a "Yes."
This includes testing the financial impact of a lower-carbon future using data like commodity price assumptions from credible sources and scenarios. This helps investors understand how resilient the company’s financial position is in a world that is transitioning to meet global climate goals.
Companies can meet this metric either by using these aligned assumptions directly or by providing clear, quantitative sensitivity analyses to show how their financials would be affected under such a scenario.
The goal is to ensure the auditor plays an active role in evaluating climate-related financial assumptions, providing investors with greater assurance about the company’s potential exposure to transition risks.

Upstream investments sanctioned in the most recent year are assessed as economically viable under the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE – 1.5°C), which reflects a low-demand pathway aligned with the Paris Agreement.
Companies may also receive a green assessment where no new recent investments have been identified.
Sanctioned investments are not aligned with NZE but may be compatible with the IEA’s Announced Pledges Scenario (APS – 1.7°C), which assumes full implementation of current government commitments.
One or more investments are only considered economically viable under the IEA’s Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS – 2.5–2.7°C), which assumes no further policy measures beyond those already in place. This may indicate a larger share of capital expenditure—beyond the thresholds of APS—being allocated to projects exposed to higher transition risk.
Indicates Year 1—recognizing investor engagement is in its early stages. One or more investments are only considered economically viable under the IEA’s Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS – 2.5–2.7°C), which assumes no further policy measures beyond those already in place. This may indicate a larger share of capital expenditure—beyond the thresholds of APS—being allocated to projects exposed to higher transition risk.
Project compatibility is determined based on breakeven cost thresholds. Projects with higher costs than those required to meet demand in lower-emissions scenarios are considered more likely to be exposed to financial risk as demand shifts. The higher the share of potential investment outside APS thresholds, the greater the transition risk.
All potential upstream capital expenditures are considered as economically viable under the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE – 1.5°C).
Companies may also receive a green assessment where no new field-scale investments have been identified.
Less than 50% of potential upstream capital expenditures are expected to fall outside the range of projects considered economically viable under the IEA’s Announced Pledges Scenario (APS – 1.7°C).
50% or more of potential upstream capital expenditures are considered not economically viable under APS.
Indicates Year 1—recognizing investor engagement is in its early stages. 50% or more of potential upstream capital expenditures are considered not economically viable under APS.
CTI models a company’s potential future production using supply data from Rystad Energy and compares it to the volume that would be expected if the company only developed projects assessed as economically viable under the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE – 1.5°C).
The greater the extent to which future production exceeds that from NZE-compatible projects, the less the company can be viewed as being Paris-aligned, and the more it may be exposed to longer-term commodity price fluctuations and transition risks.
The indicator reflects the degree to which a company’s business-as-usual production would exceed the levels consistent with a Paris-aligned pathway:
Future upstream production does not exceed the level associated with NZE-aligned projects.
Future production exceeds the NZE-aligned level by up to 50%.
Future production exceeds the NZE-aligned level by more than 50%.
Indicates Year 1—recognizing investor engagement is in its early stages. Future production exceeds the NZE-aligned level by more than 50%.
The percentage of future production that exceeds NZE-aligned levels is included within the ‘Red’ and 'Tan' score.
NZE (1.5°C): $42/barrel in 2030, $25/barrel in 2050
APS (1.7°C): $72/barrel in 2030, $58/barrel in 2050
Higher long-term oil price assumptions can signal greater exposure to transition-related risks, such as asset impairments or stranded investments. CTI characterises the shape of each company’s oil price forecast curve—declining, flat, increasing, or other patterns—which helps signal whether the company expects sustained or falling demand. Supplementary text may include the maximum forecasted price and the date of the company’s projection.
Price forecasts is aligned with—or below—NZE levels. The company’s price curve assumptions are aligned with—or below—NZE – 1.5°C levels. The company’s price curve is generally declining.
Price assumptions exceed NZE – 1.5°C levels but remain within the APS – 1.7°C range. The company’s price curve is generally flat or moderately increasing and includes assumptions that fall within the range of APS forecasts.
Price assumptions are higher than both the NZE – 1.5°C and APS – 1.7°C scenarios, suggesting limited consideration of potential demand decline. The company’s price curve is generally increasing, or prices are not disclosed.
