Lending covenant, KYC refresh, or a green loan condition
Bank ESG annex
Banks ask for Scope 1 and 2, sometimes 3, a method statement, and increasingly for year-over-year change with a reason. Periods lock and restatements are explicit, so “what changed” is a diff rather than a debate.
What the ledger answers
3 of 5, one disclosed, one outside scope. Every line below is either produced from your own records, produced with a method we disclose, or absent and stated as absent.

The ledger does not provide assurance. It produces what an assurance provider asks for.
Answer it once, reuse it
The point of a ledger rather than a spreadsheet is that this request and the next one come out of the same records. Answering a customer questionnaire is most of the work of answering an EcoVadis assessment, a bank annex and a tender clause, because the figures, the method and the evidence are already assembled and already traceable.
