The ENGAGE for ESG Consortium is delighted to announce that the Climate Positive Europe Alliance (CPEA Aisbl) has joined ENGAGE for ESG as a data user.
In late May 2026, CPEA gained access to the data published by Unión de Créditos Inmobiliarios (UCI) on the ENGAGE Portal to conduct a pilot exercise, assessing the feasibility of evaluating the CPEA Standard Taxonomy verification on UCI green RMBS transactions.
The ENGAGE Portal provides dedicated private areas for lending institutions to upload the ENGAGE Templates and other documents, and allows deal owners to grant access to third parties to their data.
The access of CPEA to the UCI data marks a milestone in the ENGAGE Portal deployment roadmap and highlights the importance of sustainability data availability in a consistent and harmonised manner through a centralised system.
“The ENGAGE Portal access for third institutional parties interested in the assessment of residential mortgage portfolio pools, RMBS or covered bond transactions is a key achievement of the ENGAGE for ESG initiative”- said Marco Angheben, ENGAGE Project Coordinator and Head of Business & Regulatory Affairs at European DataWarehouse.
“We are delighted to work with ENGAGE for ESG to foster investments in sustainable buildings. Access to the UCI Green RMBS transaction data from Portugal and Spain provides a valuable opportunity to test the data quality for our member’s EU Taxonomy verification services. We see this as a start of a strong collaboration to advance standardised, harmonised and consistent European disclosure templates” said Seema Issar, Head of Sustainable Finance and Taxonomy at Climate Positive Europe Alliance.
Philippe Laporte, Deputy CEO of the Grupo UCI, stated: “UCI’s commitment to the ENGAGE for ESG initiative as a pilot institution is starting to bear fruits to demonstrate the commitment to EU Taxonomy compliance. We are thrilled to leverage our expertise with the ENGAGE Templates and Portal to further enrich our sustainability reports with the CPEA Standard for Taxonomy verification”.
It is expected that more ENGAGE Portal deal owners progressively start granting access to CPEA to complement the ENGAGE Taxonomy alignment report with CPEA Standard Taxonomy reports.
European lending institutions are invited to participate in the ENGAGE for ESG initiative, giving them exclusive access to the EU Taxonomy assessment until December 2026, by emailing engage4esg@eurodw.eu.
