As part of the collaboration, PwC has become a global partner within PCAF\u2019s Accredited Partner Programme, supporting financial institutions in implementing internationally recognised methodologies for emissions associated with lending and investment activities. The full article is available at this <a href=\"https:\/\/carbonaccountingfinancials.com\/en\/newsitem\/pwc-joins-the-global-pcaf-accredited-partner-program#newsitemtext\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 2019, PCAF has developed the <strong>world\u2019s most widely used standard for measuring and disclosing financed emissions<\/strong>. Its methodology is used by financial institutions globally and is referenced in major sustainability reporting frameworks, including <strong>IFRS S2<\/strong> and the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (<strong>ESRS<\/strong>) under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (<strong>CSRD<\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>Through the partnership, PwC will provide support in areas including <strong>emissions baselining, calculation automation, data governance, target-setting, disclosure readiness and independent assurance<\/strong>.
