Climate Dividends x Eurazeo x Daphni - Investors-Only Session

About this event

We're organizing an investors-only webinar, and Eurazeo and daphni are joining to share their experience! ☀️

This session aims to highlight the value Climate Dividends bring to climate/impact investors. Climate Dividend is an extra-financial indicator currently used by 100+ investors to track and pilot their investments' climate performance in terms of positive contribution. To share their experience, we're inviting:

  • Erwann Le Ligné, Partner @Eurazeo and Co-Head of Eurazeo Planetary Boundaries Fund
  • Damien Didier, Head of Sustainability @daphni

About Climate Dividends 💡

The Climate Dividend Association, co-founded early 2023 by Ademe, Mirova, Sweep, Team For The Planet, 2050 and the Kanopée Partage foundation and chaired by Brune Poirson, aims to foster investment in solutions that contribute to carbon neutrality through the development and promotion of Climate Dividends.

For a quick overview, here is a dedicated one-pager for investors : link.

A Climate Dividend is an extra-financial indicator corresponding to the positive climate impact of a company that can be claimed by its shareholders. It's the mirror of a financial dividend for climate!

Climate Dividends’ users are companies selling a product/service avoiding or removing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and who, each year can:

  1. Measure the GHG emissions avoided or removed by their solution (= "the climate positive contribution of their solution"), in compliance with the Climate Dividends Protocol
  2. Have this method and calculations audited by an independent 3rd-party
  3. Convert their verified emissions into Climate Dividends: 1 tCO2e avoided/removed by the activity = 1 Climate Dividend
  4. Distribute the Climate Dividends issued to their shareholders, up to their % of capital

Climate Dividends serve as standardized, reliable and transparent indicator of the positive climate contribution, in addition (and never instead of) the carbon footprint. It thus enables to communicate about this positive impact without greenwashing, to use it pilot a climate performance strategy and to compare to other stakeholders (both companies and investors).

Once you have a standardized and reliable way of measuring climate positive contribution, it is a powerful metric to:

  • Assess and compare climate performance of investments, pilot it and report it at fund level to LPs
  • Include said performance into investments' valuations through the right multiples/KPIs, as the valuation of a "climate goodwill"

It has proven useful for equity investors across all investments stages as well as all types of operations. Wether you're an early-stage VC, a LBO enthusiast or a long-operating infra investor, Climate Dividends can help. So join us to learn more!

In 2024, 35+ international businesses of all sizes will distribute Climate Dividends to 100+ investors, reporting on their 2023 activity.

See you there! ☀️
