Ask our team
Can we organise data by entity or portfolio?

Yes. Data is held by entity, branch and portfolio, and Astraa rolls it up to the group, so each total and each part come from the same records.

How is data quality represented?

Each financed-emissions figure carries a PCAF data quality score from 1 to 5, based on whether it comes from reported emissions or an estimate. Portfolio totals show a weighted score, so you can see where better data would help most.

Which reporting outputs are supported?

BRSR, GRI, CDP, ISSB-aligned disclosures and investor questionnaires are prepared from the same reviewed data. Each figure keeps its source file.
