Including portfolio growth in monitoring performance against targets

Methods

Dear,

I was wondering how it is best to approach the measurement of performance against targets by including portfolio growth in monitoring the level of financed emissions. E.g. if the base year stands at 100 financed emissions and the subsequent year this should drop to 98 according to the SBTi tool, while it actually increases to 103 due to the increase of financial exposure, should this increase in exposure be corrected in monitoring/measuring performance against targets? If so, what calculation approach is best suited for this?
