Accelerating Value Chain Decarbonization for Corporate Growth Perspectives from Asia 2025

Proactive target-setting is no longer optional but a strategic imperative for market relevance. Companies establishing science-aligned Scope 3 goals and measuring carbon footprint at both the corporate and product levels signal operational maturity to global investors and buyers, mitigating transition risks while accessing green finance. This requires embedding accountability into procurement systems and bridging capability gaps across supply tiers, which is especially critical for Asia’s SME-dominated industrial base.3.1 Starting from within 0 500 1,000 1,500 2,000 2,500 3,000 3,500Asia (all combined) Greater China Japan India South Korea Singapore Thailand Indonesia Malaysia Philippines Viet Nam Cambodia Yes (financial planning, strategy planning or both) No (planning or not planning to within 2 years)Number of enterprises in Asia that integrate climate change into their corporate strategies FIGURE 8 Source: CDP . Frasers Property: decarbonization starting from inside BOX 6 Frasers Property has implemented an internal Climate Value-at-Risk (CVaR) platform and decarbonization tool to guide value-chain emission reductions from within. The system standardizes asset, energy and emissions data, inputs them into scenario-based risk models, and simulates the impact of various decarbonization interventions on emissions, costs and asset value. This enables informed investment, financial and strategic decisions, prioritizing the most effective internal actions before extending to external operations, thereby embedding carbon reduction into the core of the business.
