Our goal is to account for emissions of financial products
used by Governments

And provide guidance on:
•How to calculate and report on GHG emissions from relevant financial products,
considering data types, data collection, calculation methods, inclusions/exclusions
etc.

To do our work, we may consider breaking up into several

As a group, we will research and determine what should be addressed in Part IV (Governments) of the
Accounting Guidance and suggest a work plan moving forward…

Once relevant issues are determined, we can break into subgroups if
