What Asset Impact does
Asset Impact is a Paris-based climate data and analytics provider that supplies asset-level climate transition intelligence to financial institutions. The company was originally created by the 2° Investing Initiative France as Asset Resolution and was acquired by GRESB in December 2022, after which it was rebranded Asset Impact. Asset Impact maintains offices in Paris, London, and Berlin and serves banks, asset owners, asset managers, regulators, consultancies, and insurance/pension funds across Europe and North America.
The core product is a bottom-up, asset-based climate dataset covering 330,000+ physical assets and 77,000+ companies (public and private, including subsidiaries and joint ventures) across 13 climate-critical sectors that account for approximately 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions. The platform delivers Company-Level Indicators (over 100 metrics including production, emission intensity, and absolute Scope 1/2/3 emissions) and Linked Asset Indicators (production, emissions, and precise geolocation), refreshed quarterly with forward-looking forecasts to 2029. Analytics products include Transition Analytics, Scenario Analysis against three IEA scenarios, Financed Emissions (PCAF-aligned), PACTA and PCAF plug-ins, Alignment Analytics, and an Emissions Scopes Module. Data is delivered via CSV/Excel over SFTP or email, with API access and an online dashboard in development.
Asset Impact operates a B2B enterprise subscription model with quote-based pricing, supplemented by bespoke analytics and consulting/training services. The go-to-market is consultative field sales targeting regulated use cases including EBA Pillar 3, TCFD, PCAF, SFDR, and EU Taxonomy compliance. The company's data has been adopted as a reference by the European Central Bank for its bank-misalignment report and used by the California Department of Insurance for its first US state climate stress test, and it counts major banks (Barclays, HSBC, BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank, ING, BBVA, Morgan Stanley, Commerzbank, Société Générale, TD Bank, RCBC), PwC, KLP, and ECB/CDI among its users.

- 2° Investing Initiative (2DII)coreAsset Resolution (now Asset Impact) was originally created by and spun out of the 2° Investing Initiative France to help financial institutions access science-based asset-level data. 2DII's research founded the asset-based methodology that underpins Asset Impact's products, including the PACTA (Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment) tool.

Asset Impact competitors and assessment
Company assessmentEmerging players
- Persefoni: Persefoni provides a climate management and accounting platform for financial institutions, including PCAF-aligned financed emissions measurement. It overlaps with Asset Impact's financed emissions and PCAF plug-in offerings from a more software/platform-centric angle.
- Watershed: Watershed is a climate platform used by enterprises and financial institutions to measure, report, and reduce emissions. It competes on financed emissions measurement and disclosure workflows used by many of the same bank customers.
Broad incumbents
- MSCI ESG Research: MSCI ESG Research provides climate data, scenario analysis, and ESG ratings used by asset managers and asset owners globally. It competes directly with Asset Impact in the climate data for financial institutions segment but operates at much larger scale with a broader product suite.
- CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project): CDP is the dominant global corporate climate disclosure dataset, used by financial institutions for portfolio-level climate assessments. While its data is disclosure-based rather than asset-based, it competes for many of the same customers and use cases as Asset Impact.
- Moody's Climate Solutions (Four Twenty Seven): Moody's Climate Solutions provides physical and transition climate risk analytics for financial institutions. It overlaps with Asset Impact on transition risk modeling and is part of a broader rating and analytics suite sold to enterprise clients.
- S&P Global Trucost: Trucost, part of S&P Global, provides carbon and climate data for financial institutions including financed emissions analytics and transition risk assessment — broadly overlapping with Asset Impact's financed emissions and scenario analysis offerings but as part of a wider data platform portfolio.
- Bloomberg ESG Data: Bloomberg Terminal ESG data offerings provide climate and emissions data to financial institutions with massive distribution via existing Bloomberg subscription footprints, indirectly competing for climate data spend within the same institutional buyer base.
Others
- 2° Investing Initiative (2DII): 2DII originally spun out Asset Resolution (now Asset Impact) and maintains the PACTA methodology underpinning Asset Impact's PACTA Plug-in. It is a closely aligned partner and co-developer rather than a direct commercial competitor.
- Climate Bonds Initiative (CBI): CBI provides climate-aligned standards and analysis tools used by regulators, banks, and asset managers; its green bond assessment and policy work intersect with Asset Impact's target customers in sustainable finance.
Direct peers
- ISS ESG: ISS ESG (now part of Sustainable Fitch) provides climate analytics, portfolio climate risk tools, and financed emissions solutions specifically targeted at banks and asset managers, directly competing with Asset Impact for similar regulatory and reporting use cases.
