Moody's Corporation, the parent entity, has set several climate commitments. It aims to achieve net-zero emissions across its value chain by 2040 from a 2019 base year. Near-term targets include a 50% reduction in absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030, and a 15% reduction in Scope 3 GHG emissions from fuel and energy-related activities, business travel, and employee commuting by 2025, both from a 2019 base year. Furthermore, the company commits that 60% of its suppliers, by spend covering purchased goods and services and capital goods, will have science-based targets by 2025. These targets are consistent with reductions required to limit global warming to 1.5°C and have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
