ICE Data Services provides company-level data on emissions disclosures, estimated emissions, emission targets, and model-based emission projections up to 2050. The Revenues/Assets at Risk in Disclosing Firms indicators leverage on firm-level emissions disclosures and projections of these firms for the period 20252050. The sample is restricted to firms whose emissions disclosures are deemed complete. Data for a firm are considered “Complete” when at least 95% of a company’s worldwide Scope 1 and 2 emissions within an appropriately chosen reporting boundary are covered by their reporting.  Firm identifiers (ISIN or LEI codes) from ICE are mapped to Orbis dataset for the compilation of the indicators. Orbis is a dataset compiled and maintained by Bureau Van Dijk and owned by Moody’s Analytics. The Revenues/Assets at Risk in Disclosing Firms indicators are calculated using the information on company revenues, assets, country of incorporation, and ISIC core sector provided by ICE.The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) produces model-based simulation of the joint climate-economic systems under different scenarios. The Revenues and Assets at Risk in Disclosing Firms indicators are calculated using NGFS Phase 3 output from the simulation of the model REMIND-MAgPIE 3.0-4.4  downloaded by IMF staff in December 2023.Methodology:The Revenues/Assets at Risk in Disclosing Firms indicators are calculated at the level of ISIC Section (letter code), ISIC Division (2 digits), and WEO country grouping, but not crossing the sectoral and geographic dimensions. These indicators are only calculated for Scope 1 emissions.  Specifically, for each of the sectors or geographies, the indicator is defined as the share of total revenues or assets in each sector or geography in firms at risk. In turn, firms at risk as defined as those disclosing firms for which, in at least one of the projection years 2025-2050, the total emissions in each scenario/year times the corresponding carbon price in that scenario/year from the NGFS phase 3 scenarios exceeds 10% of the revenues for that firm. The underlying assumption when calculating these indicators based on Scope 1 emissions is that companies will be directly and fully taxed at the posted carbon tax rate under the assumed scenario. As estimates of future revenues are not available, firms at risk are identified in comparison to the 2021 revenues to scale the carbon tax burden on the firms. However, current revenues may not fully reflect future revenues. To address this, a second version of the estimates is calculated by relaxing the constant revenues and assets assumption. For this set of indicators, firms’ revenues and assets are adjusted by a growth factor by considering past growth trends (based on five years sector-country average growth rate pre-covid) and WEO growth assumptions. To guarantee the preservation of a reasonable degree of confidentiality/ representativeness of the underlying company-level information, results are not calculated in those instances in which either the number of disclosing firms in each sector/geography is strictly less than 10 (9 or lower), or the share of either assets or revenues (whichever is applicable) of the top 2 firms exceeds 85%.
