CDP is a global non-profit that runs the world’s only independent environmental 
disclosure system for 25 years now. It helps investors, companies, and governments
surface the information needed to make Earth-positive decisions. In 2025, 22,100
companies, representing two thirds of global market capitalization, disclosed through
CDP.

Ramon S. Monzon, President and CEO of PSE, stated: “Our role as a capital market
institution goes beyond facilitating investments. By joining CDP, we are signaling
to our listed companies and investors that environmental transparency is essential
to long-term value creation. We encourage all PSE-listed companies to disclose through
CDP and demonstrate their commitment to sustainability.”

 

CDP can be a useful tool for listed corporates to identify how they can improve 
their systems, policies, and governance to be more sustainable. CDP’s disclosure
platform integrates best practice reporting standards and frameworks in one place,
with IFRS S2 as its foundational baseline. Hence, companies can use CDP to identify
and report climate-related financial risks and opportunities. CDP’s disclosure platform
also fully incorporates the Recommendations of the Taskforce for Climate-related
Financial Disclosures (TCFD) with substantial or partial alignment with the European
Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) and the Recommendations of the Taskforce
for Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD). The questionnaire covers climate
change, water security, forests, plastics, and ocean impacts.

 

As a signatory, PSE is now one of over 540 global financial institutions, representing
more than US$110 trillion in assets, collectively requesting companies around the
world to disclose their environmental impacts through CDP.
