Climate-Related Financial Disclosures – A Finance and Business Point of View on TCFD
The TCFD, chaired by Michael R. Bloomberg, seeks to develop recommendations for voluntary climate-related financial disclosures that are consistent, comparable, reliable, clear, and efficient, and provide decision-useful information to lenders, insurers, and investors. It recognizes the work that has been done by NGOs in this space, however, as an industry-led initiative, the TCFD represents an opportunity to bring climate-related financial reporting to a mainstream audience. By August 2018, already over 390 organizations have expressed their support for the TCFD.
