Climate-related reporting
Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures
The Financial Stability Board (FSB) created the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) in 2015 to improve and increase reporting of climate-related financial information. The TCFD developed a framework, published in 2017, which primarily aims to ensure that financial risks and opportunities related to climate change become a natural part of companies’ risk management and strategic planning processes.
Our entity-level reporting is available to download below.
The disclosures required under TCFD will help investors and others understand how reporting organisations think about, and assess, climate-related risks and opportunities, ultimately leading to a more efficient allocation of capital to support the climate transition.
