Through its Alignment Scale, the Roadmap addresses three essential questions that determine how GPs classify portfolio companies:

1. What measures has the company taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
2. Is there a recognized transition pathway for this company?
3. Do the company’s operations enable the net zero transition?

Once a portfolio company has been classified on the Alignment Scale, the fund can comprehensively track and disclose the company’s decarbonization progress and its role in the transition to a low-carbon economy.

To classify portfolio companies against the Alignment Scale and put the PMDR into practice, please request a copy of the PMDR Classification Tool. Please note the Classification Tool was primarily designed for GPs' internal use, and is aimed at visualizing fund alignment levels rather than for data reporting purposes.
