Get the money moving: Meeting the European corporate transition challenge

Europe has some of the most ambitious environmental policies in the world, but how are businesses, cities and financial institutions moving towards those goals?

With thousands of European companies reporting to CDP and hundreds of European cities, the CDP Europe Report 2023 showcases this dataset and brings novel and highly relevant information to our key stakeholders and the wider market.
Get the money moving: Meeting the European corporate transition challenge reveals opportunities for companies to use data to better invest in green initiatives and attract capital to move towards 1.5°C. It explores the complex challenges of translating key areas of climate transition plans into the substantial changes needed in investment, product development and supply chains, uncovering ways to scale impactful solutions.

More than 1600 European organizations (89% of the European market capitalization) disclosed information through CDP in 2023. Despite the unprecedented commitment to climate action, economic fundamentals are not evolving fast enough in many sectors. A new analysis by CDP and Oliver Wyman highlights the opportunities for change to make a rapid and large-scale shift to greener business models commercially attractive.

70% of European companies spend less than a quarter of their expenditure on implementing a transition away from carbon.
