Why DERI

Daishin Economic Research Institute combines quantitative data expertise with capital market insight to deliver differentiated climate and environmental solutions.

GHG Inventories Built on Rigorous Data Integrity

Following international standards such as the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064, we carefully document activity data sources and calculation bases to build reliable emissions data that stands up to third-party assurance.

Climate Risk Quantification Backed by Financial Modeling

Using scenario analysis and financial modeling, we translate climate risks into financial impacts at the level of individual accounts, providing the quantitative evidence required by disclosure standards such as IFRS S2.

Transition Finance Solutions Leveraging Capital Market Insight and Institutional Investor Networks

Drawing on Daishin Financial Group's capital market insight and institutional investor network, we go beyond reduction strategy to deliver solutions that lead to actual financing, such as sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs).

GHG Inventory Development

Key Features

Based on the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064 guidelines, we survey your sites, define organizational boundaries and collect activity data, then build your GHG inventory using our emissions calculation tool and support third-party verification.

Target Clients
  • Listed companies subject to mandatory Scope 1 and 2 disclosure
  • Companies covered by the Emissions Trading Scheme (K-ETS) or the GHG Target Management System
  • Exporters subject to carbon regulations in the EU and other markets
Expected Benefits
  • Full legal compliance with domestic and international mandatory climate disclosure and environmental regulations
  • Control over emissions allowance and regulatory risks through systematic carbon data management
  • Clear view of carbon reduction potential

Scope 3 Emissions Calculation

Key Features

As demand for supply-chain emissions reductions grows, we prioritize material Scope 3 categories by emissions volume, influence and stakeholder interest, then apply calculation methodologies suited to the available data to build an inventory ready for verification.

Target Clients
  • Large companies subject to global ESG disclosure frameworks such as ISSB and CSRD
  • Companies committed to SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) or carbon neutrality
  • Exporters in the supply chains of global customers
Expected Benefits
  • Protect existing orders and qualify for new bids by proactively meeting global customers' supply-chain reduction requirements
  • Mitigate supply chain risk by identifying carbon hotspots across the value chain

Climate Risk Assessment

Key Features

With mandatory climate disclosure under IFRS S2 and TCFD expanding, companies need a quantitative framework for assessing the financial impact of transition and physical risks. Through regulatory and scenario analysis, we prioritize key risks and opportunities, estimate their impact by account, and build an actionable climate risk assessment framework.

Target Clients
  • Large listed companies seeking to get ahead of upcoming mandatory ESG disclosure
  • Carbon-intensive industries with high exposure to physical and transition climate risks, such as steel, chemicals, energy, refining and shipping
Expected Benefits
  • Quantify the financial losses climate change may cause (higher costs, lower asset values) in advance and prepare a response framework
  • Earn institutional investor trust and protect corporate value by meeting IFRS S2 requirements

Carbon Neutrality Strategy

Key Features

In response to growing demand for carbon neutrality targets aligned with global initiatives such as SBTi, we develop a carbon neutrality pathway that covers setting target years, projecting future emissions based on production plans and identifying the optimal mix of reduction technologies.

Target Clients

Globally oriented large companies and mid-sized exporters asked by investors and stakeholders to achieve net zero and present an implementation roadmap (e.g., RE100)

Expected Benefits
  • Meet the requirements of global initiatives
  • Guard against greenwashing
  • Minimize mid- to long-term financial burden through cost-effective reduction investment decisions based on marginal abatement cost analysis

Integrated Environmental Impact Assessment

Key Features

Based on detailed site-level environmental impact analysis, we expand environmental management systems that have focused mainly on climate goals to cover the full environmental spectrum, including pollutants, resource circularity and water, and set supporting mid- to long-term targets and an actionable roadmap.

Target Clients
  • Large manufacturing sites with significant emissions or use of chemicals, waste, water and other environmental pollutants
  • Companies at risk of controversy deductions in ESG ratings (KCGS, MSCI, etc.) due to environmental violations
Expected Benefits
  • Prevent critical operational risks such as site-level environmental violations and production shutdowns
  • Improve overall ratings and reputation by meeting ESG rating agencies' advanced environmental management requirements

Financed Emissions Calculation

Key Features

We quantify the GHG emissions of financial institutions' and holding companies' investment and lending portfolios in line with the global PCAF standard, helping you manage asset-level climate risk and build a structured net-zero transition strategy.

Target Clients
  • Financial groups managing large investment and lending portfolios across banking, insurance, securities and asset management
  • Non-financial holding companies that need integrated management of climate risks across subsidiaries and investees
Expected Benefits
  • Build portfolios that avoid stranded asset risk by assessing carbon exposure by asset class
  • Achieve green (sustainable) finance reduction targets and meet global climate initiative requirements

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

Key Features

We quantify the GHG emissions of financial institutions' and holding companies' investment and lending portfolios in line with the global PCAF standard, helping you manage asset-level climate risk and build a structured net-zero transition strategy.

Target Clients
  • Exporters of products covered by the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and the Battery Passport (steel, aluminum, batteries, etc.)
  • B2B and B2C manufacturers pursuing green product marketing, such as Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification
Expected Benefits
  • Address trade barriers such as global carbon tariffs by deriving product-level carbon footprints
  • Create a green product premium and enter new markets through low-carbon processes and eco-design

Transition Finance

Key Features

To help carbon-intensive companies secure the large-scale capital needed for their low-carbon transition, we design frameworks aligned with international capital market standards (such as ICMA) and support optimal financing strategies.

Target Clients
  • High-emitting industries requiring large-scale investment to achieve carbon neutrality and convert to low-carbon facilities
  • Companies seeking to lower their cost of funding through sustainability-linked bonds (SLBs) and loans (SLLs)
Expected Benefits
  • Successfully attract green capital (a green premium) with a framework aligned with international capital market standards (ICMA)
  • Directly reduce interest costs (cost of funding) linked to KPI achievement
