TCFD

Introduction to TCFD

Established by the Financial Stability Board in 2015, the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) has emerged as a key player in driving the integration of climate-related risks into financial decision-making. The primary aim of TCFD is to develop recommendations for more effective climate-related disclosures that promote more informed investment, credit, and insurance underwriting decisions.

TCFD’s disclosure framework centers on the concept that climate change poses serious risks to global financial markets and organizations. By providing investors and the market with clear, comparable information about these risks, the TCFD aims to ensure the financial system is resilient to these changes.

Decoding the TCFD Framework

The TCFD's recommendations are structured around four thematic areas that represent core elements of how organizations operate:

1. Governance: Disclose the organization’s governance around climate-related risks and opportunities.
2. Strategy: Disclose the actual and potential impacts of climate-related risks and opportunities on the organization’s businesses, strategy, and financial planning.
3. Risk Management: Disclose how the organization identifies, assesses, and manages climate-related risks.
4. Metrics and Targets: Disclose the metrics and targets used to assess and manage relevant climate-related risks and opportunities.

The recommendations are designed to be adoptable by all organizations, to be included in financial filings, to be sector-specific where appropriate, and to promote forward-looking risk management strategies and metrics.
