Problem
Investors and financial institutions lack reliable, granular data on how companies are actually progressing toward net‑zero goals, relying instead on self‑reported disclosures that can be incomplete or inconsistent.
Solution
Forward Analytics creates detailed digital twins for over 100,000 companies by aggregating information on physical assets, facilities, emissions, and investment plans worldwide. These data models provide a transparent, data‑driven view of each firm’s transition trajectory and associated climate‑related risks. The platform continuously updates the twins, allowing users to monitor real‑time progress against net‑zero targets rather than static reports. Analytical tools translate the raw data into actionable insights, supporting compliance with emerging supervisory expectations and informing investment decisions. By delivering a forward‑looking, quantitative assessment of corporate climate performance, Forward Analytics enables banks and investors to move beyond narrative disclosures toward evidence‑based risk management.
