 The "emissions profile" measures the transition risk on the product-level of a

+Note that for the ranking and categorization, we apply different benchmarks.
+Products are compared to (i) all other products, to (ii) products within the

+products measured in the same unit, and a combination of (iv) with either (i),

-Please note that carbon footprints, and emissions are used equivalently. Carbon

+Finally, the indicator provides the share of products with "low", "medium", or

 The output of this indicator contains the following:
 
-- a column with production emissions
-- a column indicating the percentile relative to (i) all products with same unit
-(ii) products in same sector (iii) products in same segment
-- a column indicating whether the product has "low", "medium" or "high" relative
-production emissions.
