(PCAF).
The PCAF is a global collaboration between financial institutions to develop and implement a harmonized approach to assess and disclose the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions associated with their loans and investments.
This harmonized accounting approach is designed to provide financial institutions with a starting point to set science-based climate targets and align their portfolios with the Paris Climate Agreement.
To this end, the PCAF has developed and published the Global GHG Accounting and Reporting Standard for the Financial Industry.
The PCAF was launched in 2015.
