Commercial Banks

Banking ยท Financed Emissions ยท Sustainability Disclosure

Commercial banks need ESG reporting that covers both their own operations and the financed emissions associated with lending and investment portfolios. Novnine ESG supports structured sustainability data collection, Scope 1, 2 and applicable Scope 3 reporting, and financed-emissions workflows for banking portfolios.

The platform supports PCAF-attributed financed emissions and Category 15 portfolio disclosure preparation, including commercial-lending breakdowns by sector, asset class, borrower emissions scope, exposure coverage and calculation methodology.

Pension Fund Administrators

PENCOM Deadline โ€” December 2026

PENCOM's Pension Revolution 2.0 raised minimum capital requirements to โ‚ฆ20 billion by December 2026. Investors funding recapitalisation increasingly demand documented ESG governance before committing capital โ€” creating both a regulatory and capital-market imperative simultaneously.

Novnine ESG is purpose-built for PFA-specific disclosure: assets under management tracked against ESG investment integration criteria, and โ€” critically โ€” PCAF financed emissions calculated per Nigerian methodology, something no platform built for European markets can offer.

Investment & Asset Management

Investment & Portfolio ESG Reporting

Investment managers and asset-management businesses need structured ESG information across portfolios, stewardship activity and climate-related investment exposure โ€” not only their own office operations.

Novnine ESG brings portfolio ESG data, applicable PCAF financed-emissions workflows, investment stewardship records and IFRS S1/S2-aligned sustainability disclosure preparation into the same controlled reporting environment.

National Microfinance Banks

FRCN Other PIE Deadline โ€” 2028

CBN's Sustainable Banking Principles require quarterly ESG reporting across nine distinct principles โ€” from green finance portfolio composition to environmental and social risk integration in lending decisions. For MFBs with dozens or hundreds of branches, the operational challenge is data aggregation, not just calculation.

Novnine ESG's branch data architecture solves exactly this: each branch manager submits through a restricted login, head office sees everything aggregated automatically โ€” no WhatsApp coordination, no Excel consolidation at month-end.

Insurance Companies

FRCN Significant PIE Deadline โ€” 2027

NAICOM's expectations increasingly encompass climate risk in underwriting decisions and insurance-associated emissions disclosure. Novnine ESG is one of very few platforms globally โ€” and the only Nigerian one โ€” to implement PCAF Type 2, the standard specifically for insurance-associated underwriting emissions.

PCAF Data Quality Score is generated automatically and disclosed in your report, satisfying IFRS S2's transparency requirements without requiring your team to understand the underlying methodology in depth.

NGX Listed Companies

NGX Premium Board Deadline โ€” 2027

The NGX Net-Zero Programme, launched January 2026, requires structured measurement, target-setting, and โ€” for Premium Board companies โ€” quarterly interim sustainability disclosures alongside your Annual Report. GHG intensity per market capitalisation is the metric institutional investors increasingly screen for.

Novnine ESG calculates GHG intensity automatically and tracks your net-zero pathway against interim targets, giving your Investor Relations team a defensible, continuously updated disclosure rather than an annual scramble.

Exporters & Trading Companies

EU CBAM Effective โ€” 2026

The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism requires exporters of cement, steel, aluminium, fertiliser, hydrogen, and electricity to declare embedded carbon per tonne of product. Undocumented carbon content attracts border levies that erode commercial margins.
