CLIMATE CHANGE

Climate change is a major challenge that demands action from all of us. While Moody’s has a limited direct environmental impact, we do have an important role to play in demonstrating proactive corporate responsibility and best practices when it comes to climate change mitigation. As such, the Company is taking steps to reduce emissions across its operations and value chain in accordance with its decarbonization strategy.

Our decarbonization plan outlines tangible strategies for realizing our climate ambitions, including the procurement of 100% of renewable electricity in the Company’s office spaces and optimizing efficiencies in its operations through its hybrid work program. The costs associated with the implementation of the decarbonization plan are not expected to be material.

The acquisition of RMS allowed us to expand our climate data and analysis capabilities. The Company continues to take steps to integrate these capabilities into existing offerings to provide its analysts and researchers with streamlined access to consistent and high-quality climate insights. Additionally, we have launched a Net Zero Assessment framework to provide an independent and comparable evaluation of the strength of an entity’s carbon transition plan.
