S&P/IFCI Carbon Efficient Index
IFC, a member of the World Bank Group, and Standard & Poor's have released the world's first carbon efficient index for emerging markets that could mobilize more than $1 billion for carbon-efficient companies over the next three years. The innovative S&P/IFC Carbon Efficient Index will encourage carbon-based competition among emerging-market companies, give carbon-efficient companies access to long-term investors, and should lead to important reductions in carbon emissions in developing countries.
