ESG analysis is conducted for all large corporate

company might be affected by environmental and
social trends, legislation and factors
■ External sources for the tool include:
Carbon disclosures for business areas and key
sectors published in Danske Bank's Climate Action

■ Decarbonisation targets set towards 2030, incl. for
high-emitting sectors, with SBTi approval pending
