CO₂ data: assumption, approximation – or something you can actually defend?

By REGTECH DATAHUB, 29-04-2026

BankInvest works with REGTECH DATAHUB to turn fragmented CO₂ information for Danish mortgage bonds into a documented, auditable reference dataset. The collaboration supports reliable sustainability reporting and disclosures by ensuring CO₂ figures are traceable, consistent, and fit for real‑world reporting workflows.

Everyone reports CO₂ numbers. Far fewer can explain exactly where they come from.

For BankInvest, a Danish asset manager offering value‑driven investment funds, this wasn’t good enough. As part of its reporting and disclosure obligations, BankInvest requires reliable, well‑documented CO₂ data for Danish mortgage bonds — data that holds up not just in reports, but in audits and disclosures.

That’s where RegTech DataHub comes in.

From fragmented sources to something you can stand behind

CO₂ data for fixed income instruments, including Danish mortgage bonds, is rarely clean or complete. It’s typically stitched together from public sources, issuer disclosures, and estimation methodologies. The result? Fragmented data, unclear assumptions, and uncomfortable questions when someone asks “how did you get that number?”

RegTech DataHub helps BankInvest move away from this setup by delivering curated CO₂ reference data where sources, assumptions, and enrichment logic are clearly documented. No hidden spreadsheets. No mystery calculations. Just a structured dataset designed to be used – and explained.

Built for audits, not just dashboards

For BankInvest, CO₂ data isn’t a static checkbox. It’s something that must be explainable internally, defensible externally, and maintainable over time.

By using a structured reference dataset, BankInvest gains:

  • Clear documentation of data sources and methodologies
  • Consistent CO₂ figures across reporting workflows
  • Reduced operational overhead from manual validation
  • Improved auditability and disclosure confidence

And when underlying data changes? The setup supports updates without starting from scratch.

Less ESG theatre. More actual reporting.

This collaboration isn’t about abstract ESG scoring or glossy dashboards. It’s about supporting real reporting and disclosure workflows with data that makes sense — to compliance teams, auditors, and stakeholders alike.

Today, RegTech DataHub supports BankInvest with transparent CO₂ reference data for Danish mortgage bonds, helping ensure sustainability disclosures are based on numbers that can be understood, reviewed, and relied upon.

Because if you can’t explain your CO₂ data — you probably shouldn’t be reporting it.
