Measure and Manage the Impact of Your Assets

What are assets, and why analyze their environmental impact?

Whether you are an Infrastructure fund who directly invests in assets, a private equity firm that holds major stakes in operating assets or an asset manager that doesn’t own the assets directly - most financial institutions’ investments are tied to real assets.

Assets are tangible, physical investments with intrinsic value, including real estate, infrastructure and commodities.

Mapping assets allows organizations to identify and quantify where their operations and financed activities may impact biodiversity - crucial for allocating capital sustainably and avoiding reputational, regulatory, and physical risks.

Iceberg Data Lab’s Asset Screening tool makes these factors transparent, supporting informed investment decisions.

Regulatory landscape

A number of mandatory and voluntary regulations across the EU and globally require and/or recommend disclosure of assets located near or in biodiversity-sensitive areas.

Mapping Corporate Assets in Biodiversity-Sensitive Areas

What We Deliver

Iceberg Data Lab’s Asset Screening is a dedicated solution for financial institutions to pinpoint portfolio companies operating assets near biodiversity-sensitive areas and to provide the share of their turnover exposed to this risk.

Key features

• Consolidates multi-sector asset data and links ownership to your clients or investees, displaying all assets on an interactive map.

• Shows each asset’s footprint and high/medium/low impact buffers, modeling direct and indirect biodiversity impacts.

• Highlights overlaps with key ecological and protected areas, including IUCN Protected Areas, Natura 2000 sites, Ramsar wetlands, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and water-risk zones (Aqueduct Water Risk Atlas).

• Provides distance-weighted impact scores and a binary impact flag for assets directly affecting sensitive areas, allowing prioritization of high-risk investments.

Through visualizing sensitive assets, you can flag and screen portfolios, identify best and worst-in-class and target engagement.

The Tool's granularity allows you to identify where assets are located in relation to different sensitive areas, such as areas of water stress and conservation areas.

Why Choose Our Solution?

Iceberg Data Lab stands out with its sector- and asset type-specific methodology covering over 3.5 million assets, delivering the real footprint of assets rather than simplistic coordinate points.

Few providers offer the kind of combined spatial sensitivity and impact scoring that is directly asset-specific, backed by high-resolution geodata, sectoral expert validation and with regulatory readiness (TNFD, SFDR, CSRD, EU Taxonomy).

Granular Climate and Biodiversity Impacts for Real Assets

What We Deliver

Iceberg Data Lab offers a custom Asset Analysis, delivering detailed insights at the asset level, including:

• Corporate Biodiversity Footprint (km2.MSA) by pressure, scope, and intensity

• Carbon footprint, intensities, and SB2A Score for Paris Agreement alignment

• EU Taxonomy Alignment

• Asset localization summary

Each analysis comes with clear explanations to help you understand the impact and alignment of your company assets. Available for listed and non-listed real assets, including real estate and infrastructure.
