NEW YORK/TOKYO -- A global group of financial companies targeting net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 wants businesses to disclose more information about their plans for decarbonization, the coalition's co-chair, Mark Carney, tells Nikkei.

The Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero (GFANZ), which boasts more than 450 members, is seeking information on net-zero transition plans of high-emitting companies to help it decide where to allocate its investments and financing. Financial institutions are trying to create a common framework to make it easier to obtain and compare information on different companies.
