BNY Mellon Named to Climate A List by CDP

For the sixth consecutive year, BNY Mellon has been awarded a position on the Climate A List by CDP, the non-profit global environmental disclosure program.

The 2018 Climate A List is comprised of 127 global companies and is produced at the request of over 650 investors with over US$87 trillion in assets, and/or 115 major purchasing organizations with US$3.3 trillion in purchasing power. Thousands of companies submit annual climate disclosures to CDP for independent assessment against its scoring methodology.

BNY Mellon has been recognized for its actions in the last reporting year to cut emissions, mitigate climate risks and develop the low-carbon economy, based on its 2018 disclosure to CDP.

The Climate Change A List is published by CDP each year, alongside similar lists for leadership on protecting forests and water security.

The full methodology and criteria for the Climate Change A List are available on CDP’s website under ‘CDP scoring methodologies 2018’. 
 
The 2018 CDP A List includes the CDP Supplier A List, which in previous years was released separately.
