This accredited partner program, unveiled by the PCAF Secretariat, is aimed at addressing the rising demand for collaboration among financial institutions and third-party businesses seeking to measure and disclose emissions pertinent to their financial activities.

"We are thrilled to share that Persefoni stands at the forefront of this effort as among the first PCAF-accredited SaaS providers under this new program," said Persefoni CEO & Co-founder, Kentaro Kawamori.

We have released numerous versions of our award-winning software since then, innovating and helping PCAF drive this rapidly accelerating global market forward. This foresight is a key reason why Persefoni leads the financial services industry for climate management and accounting software."
