Water security

Home > Water

The world faces a water crisis which is already impacting the stability of the global economy. This crisis is a major financial risk to companies although it also serves as a significant opportunity. Acting on water can create new business models, products and services that bring future commercial value

Through CDP, companies and investors can measure this impact to manage these risks and opportunities, report on progress with transparency, and commit to proactive action. Companies can disclose their environmental data by responding to our water questionnaire. Investors can sign up as an Investor Signatory to request this data from the world’s largest companies and major purchasers.
