Together, MSCI and Carbon Delta will create an extensive climate risk assessment and reporting offering for the institutional market, providing global investors with solutions to help them better understand the impact of climate change on their investment portfolios and comply with mandatory and voluntary climate risk disclosure initiatives and requirements” we can read in the official press release, that reflects a forward-looking vision by MSCI and Carbon Delta and which we hope will work very well together.
