CDP’s 2022 Data Has Been Integrated Into CSRHub’s Ratings

CDP, a global non-profit that runs the world’s environmental disclosure system for companies, cities, states, and regions, recently licensed CDP data to CSRHub for integration into CSRHub’s consensus ESG ratings. CSRHub received data from CDP 2022 data set on more than 10,000 entities.

We now know if an entity participated in CDP’s carbon measurement system. We also know if an entity participated in CDP’s water, timber, cattle products, or palm oil systems. Companies, not-for-profits, and government groups came to CDP directly for help. Others were asked to share information with CDP as part of government or exchange mandates or supply chain management programs.

CDP releases data once a year. We expect to update its input on our consensus ratings with a new data set in April or May of 2024. CDP’s approach to measuring impact is globally recognized and well-respected, and companies that invest in reporting data to the group learn a lot from following their guidelines. We are proud to be associated with this work and hope to encourage more entities to work with CDP.
