The Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX Group) has launched corporate climate baseline assessments under its N-Zero initiative. This phase aims to evaluate the climate readiness of participating firms, identifying gaps in emissions measurement, transition planning, and risk management. Launched in January alongside DEG Impulse gGmbH and Africa Foresight Group, the program has already engaged over 50 companies, including several major listed entities like Access Holdings, Dangote Cement, and Zenith Bank. The assessments, scheduled for completion this September, are designed to help firms move beyond climate ambition toward measurable, science-aligned decarbonization targets and long-term capital access.
