NERA Economic Consulting, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc.

NERA Economic Consulting, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of emissions figures. The company is a current subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., and thus may inherit relevant climate commitments and targets from its parent organisation. As part of its corporate family relationship, NERA Economic Consulting aligns with the sustainability initiatives of Marsh & McLennan, which includes participation in the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). However, specific reduction targets or achievements for NERA Economic Consulting have not been disclosed. The absence of direct emissions data suggests that NERA Economic Consulting is in the process of developing its own climate strategy, potentially influenced by the broader commitments of Marsh & McLennan. As the company continues to evolve its sustainability practices, it may adopt more defined targets and reporting mechanisms in the future.
