Urgentem

Urgentem is the award-winning, independent provider of transparent carbon emission data and climate risk analytics to the finance industry. Our mission is to enable the transition to a low carbon economy by taking an approach that combines best practices from finance climate and data science with radical openness, transparency, and interdisciplinary collaboration. The scientific consensus that we must cut carbon emissions in half by the end of this decade (approximately 7.6% each year) amounts to nothing less than a transformation of the economy, requiring urgent focus and sustained action in every sphere: commerce, politics, and civil society. If financial markets are to play a leadership role in the transition to a low carbon economy, then data and analytical tools that can be trusted are indispensable. That’s where we come in.
