# Scope

PACTA analysis can be performed on corporate bonds and listed equities of companies in climate-relevant sectors

## Financial Assets

The PACTA methodology can be applied to the follow types of financial assets:

* Listed Equity
* Corporate Bonds
* Corporate Loans&#x20;

Funds in a portfolio are broken down into their constituents and can also be included in the analysis, where information about the holdings within the fund is available.&#x20;

## Applicable Sectors (Climate-relevant Sectors)

PACTA covers 8 climate-relevant sectors as illustrated below.&#x20;

Given its emphasis on technologies and climate, the analysis is limited to those parts of the portfolio with direct exposure to the relevant technologies. It thus only covers around 20-30% of the average portfolio in terms of AUM, although around 70-80% of the portfolio’s GHG impacts.
