Singapore, 30 August 2021 Everstone Group (Everstone) has become a signatory to the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) and believes that the transition towards a carbon-neutral economy will help avoid the catastrophic effects of climate change.
CDP is a global non-profit that runs the world’s leading environmental disclosure platform and holds the largest TCFD-aligned environmental database in the world. The insights from the CDP database will help asset owners and investors assess various climate-related risks and their opportunities.
Alok Oberoi, Executive Chairman, The Everstone Group, stated, “We believe that early action on climatic risks would not only reduce operational and market risks, but improve credit ratings too. We hope that the CDP’s guidelines will help our portfolio companies to develop a framework to manage climatic actions better.”
