Three flawed ways to get private markets data
Asset owners are typically forced to choose between three flawed methods, none of which meet the dynamic climate risk needs of institutional investors.
Static databases
Private company databases and market data platforms
- Missing emissions and physical risk metrics
- Difficult to map holdings (identifiers often absent)
- No collaboration with your fund managers
Proxy models
Sector-based proxy estimates
- Sector averages hide leaders and laggards
- Impossible to manage risk: Estimates don't change when real-world emissions reduce, rendering them useless for tracking decarbonisation
- Still needs granular holdings data you may not have
DIY spreadsheets
One-off email and spreadsheet campaigns
- Manual, error-prone and hard to secure
- No standardisation or audit trail for regulators
- Managers resent repeated bespoke templates
The Solution
How Pathzero's network has solved the industry problem
Pathzero replaces these flawed methods with a single, decision-grade system that ensures you can confidently manage portfolio risk and meet your obligations to members. Our approach is built on three key principles that unlock the flow of real private markets data.
Aligned incentives
We replace data extraction with value exchange. Managers get enterprise-grade risk tools in return for their data, creating a sustainable ecosystem.
Inter-operable
Designed to work with existing systems and workflows. We connect with the platforms managers already use, minimizing disruption.
Secure & Confidential
Managers retain complete control over their data. Information is shared only with authorized parties under strict permissioning.
The Process
How it works
Plan campaign & send request
Connect to your fund managers on the Pathzero network and plan a suitable engagement strategy. This applies to both fund managers and direct holdings.
Fund Managers complete request
Managers access Pathzero Navigator to collate climate data, estimate emissions where gaps exist, perform analysis, and securely share results with multiple investors.
Engage on risk matters
With initial disclosures in hand, engage in data-driven discussions on specific holdings to manage risk—for example, addressing physical risk exposure in a specific region.
Better data, better governance
Moving from proxies to a live network connection shifts the focus from data extraction to value exchange. With a foundation of real data, you can engage managers on specific risks and support IFRS S2 disclosures with confidence.
Higher coverage
Achieve 95% coverage, outperforming static databases or DIY spreadsheet engagement.
Better data quality
Achieve PCAF scores from 1–3, a level of quality not possible through proxy estimates, especially in Commercial Real Estate and Infrastructure asset classes.
Better risk management
Demonstrate dynamic management of climate risk with 3rd-party providers and leverage the network effect to benefit from the requests other investors have made before you.
