Highlights from Progress Report 2023
☐
Decreasing absolute financed emissions - Measured
emissions from our lending activities and investee
companies (scope 1 and 2) have decreased from
16.2 million to 13.3 million tCO2e, corresponding to a
~18% reduction since 2020
Solid progress on lending emission reduction targets -
Among our nine sector targets, five are transitioning
faster than a linear trajectory towards our 2030 targets,
whereas four are transitioning slower
Some challenges in meeting Danica Pension's
2025 sector targets - Energy, transportation and
utilities transitioning slower than expected; mitigating
actions initiated in line with fiduciary duties
Solid reduction of weighted average carbon intensity
for investment products - We have seen a 46%
reduction since 2020 and a decrease in our
temperature rating scores across our Asset
Management and Danica Pension portfolios
Updated baseline - Due to updated methodologies,
improved data and scope 3 emissions of investee
companies not being included in this reporting due to
large fluctuations that challenge the comparability of
historical data, our 2020 baseline is 16.2 million tCO2e
compared to the 41.1 million tCO2e reported in the
Climate Action Plan from January 2023 10
1. Baseline year 2020, 2. Absolute emission reduction targets set, 3. Absolute emission reduction and carbon intensity targets, 4. Based on a weighted portfolio exposure across Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. For activities in Denmark, the target
corresponds to a 75% reduction by 2030, 5. Based on Poseidon Principles methodology, 6. Differences in targets between asset management and life insurance & pension reflect different starting points of the portfolios, 7. Baseline year 2019,8. 2030 target,
9. Automotive, aviation and shipping 10. See the Climate Action Plan Progress Report 2023 for details on not including the investee scope 3 emissions, methodology and data changes.
