Carbon Disclosure Project Report 2007 — Asia ex-Japan
ASrIA's analysis of CDP5 2007 finds that leading Asian listed companies are disclosing new and more sophisticated business responses to climate change and carbon emissions challenges. Key trends of interest to investors show how a select group of Asian corporations are now positioned as the first wave of Asian companies with expertise in managing carbon emissions.

ASrIA's CDP work is based on an information request which was sent to a sample of 166 companies based on market capitalization covering ten Asian countries. CDP5 includes responses from 44 Asia ex-Japan companies.

Carbon Disclosure Project Report 2006 — Asia ex-Japan
Launched in December 2000, the CDP has invited institutional investors over four consecutive years (2003 - 2006) to collectively sign a single global request for disclosure of information regarding greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In doing so it has created one of the largest ever collaborations of global institutional investment capital - at $31.5 trillion of assets under management for CDP4 in 2006. The information requests have historically been sent to some of the largest global companies by market capitalisation.

ASrIA's CDP work aims to begin the process of filling this information gap by mapping the profile of carbon disclosure in the Asia Pacific Region. This report examines the disclosures from 125 Asian companies covering nine countries: China including Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand. As a result, this year marks the first time that Asian investors have a representative sample of responses to evaluate on climate change fundamentals. This makes it possible to begin tracking important global sector comparisons and to assess different Asian country level trends.
