Sector Benchmark
Note: Latest GHG and revenue data (based on tradingview.com) are used to calculate GHG emissions intensity by sector. The color scale of each bubble depends on the GHG intensity (GHG emissions per 1 million USD revenue). Sectors follow the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS) that organize companies based on their primary business activities. The 11 sectors are : Information Technology, Health Care, Financials, Consumer Discretionary, Communication Services, Industrials, Consumer Staples, Energy, Utilities, Real Estate, and Materials.
Moody's Corporation belongs to the sector Financials.

Science-based Targets (SBTI)
Date Published / Updated :01/05/2022
| Near-term | Long-Term | Net Zero Standard |
|---|---|---|
| Targets Set : 1.5°C by 2030, 2025 | Targets Set : 1.5°C by 2040 | Yes by 2040 |
Moody's Corporation is a member of the Business Ambition for 1.5 campaign (link here )
Overall Net-Zero Target
Moody’s Corporation commits to reach net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2040 from a 2019 base year.
Near-Term Targets
Moody's Corporation commits to reduce absolute scope 1 and 2 emissions 50% by 2030 from a 2019 base year. Moody's Corporation also commits to reduce absolute scope 3 GHG emissions from fuel and energy related activities, business travel, and employee commuting 15% by 2025 from a 2019 base year. Moody's Corporation further commits that 60% of its suppliers by spend covering purchased goods and services, and capital goods will have science-based targets by 2025.
Long-Term Targets
Moody's Corporation commits to reduce absolute scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions 90% by 2040 from a 2019 base year.
Offsets
Last update for Moody's by zerotracker.net: March 16, 2022| Planning to use external offset credits | Yes |
| Separate targets for emission reductions and removals | Yes |
| Conditions on use of offset credits |
|
| Plans for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) | No |
Additional notes: The company uses carbon offsetting to reach 'carbon neutrality' but this appears to be separate from its GHG emissions target - the interim target Moody’s achieved carbon neutrality for the first time in 2019 and is dedicated to remaining carbon neutral on an annual basis by mitigating emissions, as set by our science-based targets, and purchasing verified carbon offsets for residual emissions from our operations, employee commuting and business travel. In addition, Moody’s intends to retroactively offset our GHG emissions from September 2000, when Moody’s became a public company, to December 2018. This will be completed through verified carbon offsets that are matched to each of the historical year’s estimated emissions. In addition, Moody’s supports carbon-offset projects that provide co-benefits such as biodiversity through forestry projects and promote financial prosperity in communities where we operate. We select carbon offset projects based on the optimal alignment and support of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including forestation offsets, clean cookstoves or water boreholes, and clean energy. In 2021, Moody’s intends to maximize our purchase of carbon offsets in alignment with the newly released net-zero guidance from the Science Based Targets initiative, which prioritizes offsets such as forestation and others that reduce emissions. source: https://www.moodys.com/sites/products/ProductAttachments/Sustainability/moodys_decarbonization_plan.pdf 100% Carbon neutrality of residual emissions from operations, employee commuting and business travel since year 2000 source: https://www.moodys.com/sites/products/ProductAttachments/Sustainability/moodys_decarbonization_plan.pdf
